Withdrawal of Superpedestrian e-scooters from Nottingham


January 9th, 2024

Over the Christmas break the university was advised by Nottingham City Council that Superpedestrian, the company that operated Nottingham’s e-scooter hire scheme, is closing down its UK operation.

Superpedestrian has now removed all e-scooters from the streets of Nottingham, this includes those that were located on our campuses.

If you have any credit left on your account please get in touch with SuperPedestrianabc@proofofclaims.com as soon as possible.

If you were an e-scooter user, then you may want to try the Lime e-bikes which are still available for hire in the Nottingham City area, with parking spots on and around our Nottingham City campuses – you can find out more about the scheme here.

The Department for Transport has recently decided to extend Council-sponsored trials of e-scooter hire schemes and we understand that Nottingham City Council plan to start the procurement process for a new e-scooter supplier in the coming months and hope to have a new e-scooter operator in summer 2024.

A reminder to UoN staff and students, that privately owned e-scooters are not permitted on our campuses and they are not permitted on the public road network.
