In the mission to reduce transport carbon emissions, cities and towns are working to discover, develop and integrate more sustainable ways to travel. Micromobility brings great opportunity to aid this movement. This paper summarises the evolution of shared e-scooter schemes, using the UK’s West of England e-scooter trial as a case study alongside associated research. It sets out three key properties required to support a successful scheme; usability, operational sustainability and policy delivery. The paper concludes that all three properties must work in balance, and this is achieved through stakeholder communication and collaboration, underpinned by effective scheme monitoring. It emphasises that no two schemes are the same and even the most successful schemes are required to continually adapt.
