E-scooter startup Spin will place dozens of solar-powered docking stations in two cities this summer
Electric scooters are parked at a docking station. By Peter Holley Peter Holley Technology reporter Email Bio Follow May 21 at 9:27 PM Electric scooters have posed a problem outside many storefronts and heavily trafficked buildings since they began appearing in dozens of cities across the country last year.
The evolving plan — being launched by the electric scooter company Spin and a California start-up called Swiftmile — involves installing dozens of electric docking stations on sidewalks as a way to charge e-scooters, give riders a designated place to park their devices and draw more foot traffic to particular locations.
[Scooters are littering sidewalks and injuring pedestrians. Can this start-up bring order to the chaos?] Colin Roche, Swiftmile’s founder, said his charging stations — which can accommodate any brand of e-scooter — are ideal for the kind of pedestrian-congested areas where the devices are often discarded, such as bus and subway stations.
