Scooters will be limited to 10 km / h throughout Paris from the beginning of December

The operators of “free-floating” scooters (Lime, Tier and Dott) had proposed 700 speed limit zones in Paris, the town hall goes further and extends the rule to the entire capital. This Thursday, David Belliard announced that from the first half of December, all self-service electric scooters will be limited to 10 km / h throughout Paris with the exception of a few major axes, especially those with secure cycle paths, which will keep their limitation at 20 km / h. The limitation will be done by the operators themselves who can restrict the devices remotely according to their geolocation.

"Our priority is to protect the most vulnerable users of public space and this involves regulating scooters", justifies the elected official.

Parks, gardens and sidewalks are now “sacred” for pedestrians, and prohibited for electric scooters.

Scooters will also be "regulated"

Like scooters in their day, self-service electric scooters have landed en masse in Paris.

Same observation, same measures, the City of Paris will launch a call for tenders to choose "two or three operators", who will have to meet the same requirements as scooters, in terms of size, availability, etc.

Today eleven operators are present in the capital.

Paid parking for motorized two-wheelers postponed to September 2022

Initially scheduled for next January, paid parking for motorized two-wheelers is postponed to September 2022. David Belliard put forward “technical constraints” to justify this postponement. "The State is blocking us by denying us access to France Connect", explains the deputy who specifies that an agreement had been concluded with the interface to be able to facilitate the administrative procedures for those who want to apply for a resident card. . "It is a form of impunity with regard to motorized two-wheelers after the refusal of the technical control", he regrets.

David Belliard assures, however, that this blocking should be settled for the month of July 2022, then allowing an implementation for the following re-entry, the deputy wishing a launch in due form with a "clean" interface.

He also reiterated that electric scooters will continue to benefit from free parking and that 5,000 new parking spaces will be deployed.

Reinforced video surveillance

Still with the aim of regulating mobility, Nicolas Nordman announced that video surveillance in Paris will be "very considerably strengthened".

"It is extremely efficient and allows operators, via the cameras, to draw up reports immediately," he added.

For the City of Paris, the objective is to "double the verbalization capacity" by doubling the number of operators from 10 to 20.
