Starting today, Bird e-scooters and e-bikes are returning to Windsor.

Windsorites will once again be able to use e-scooters and e-bikes to get around the city.

While the riding area remains the same as last year according to the company, thanks to a partnership with the University of Windsor, Bird Canada vehicles can now also be used on campus.

“Windsorites fully embraced our e-scooters last year, making it our most successful first year roll-out for a city in Canada. We believe we will see even greater adoption this year as riders shift from viewing e-scooters as a novelty to using them as a reliable, alternate mode of transportation,” said Stewart Lyons, CEO of Bird Canada. “We also anticipate renewed interest in our Bird Bikes, which will be widely available throughout the City for the entire season.”

In 2021, 22,520 people in Windsor used Bird e-scooters, travelling an average of 2.8 kilometers per ride, for a total distance travelled of 564,866 kilometers.
