The 'E-micromobility action plan', which was released ahead of a parliamentary inquiry into electric scooters and bikes, is pushing to legalise and regulate the devices.
Transport Minister Jo Haylen is pushing the bold plan which would see e-bikes and e-scooters, including shared hire scooters, become legal for commuters riding to and from railway and Metro stations.
Under the proposed plan, e-scooter riders must be aged 16 years and over, are legally required to wear a helmet and must ride in designated bike paths or shared zones
