"Tens of thousands of people have come to rely on Lime to get around their neighborhoods in Queens and the Bronx and we're grateful to each and every one of our riders for making us part of the city's public transportation network." - Nicole Yearwood, Senior Manager of Government Relations at Lime
The e-scooter company said that the majority of its riders in New York City were likely commuters headed to work and school, with most people taking their rides between the hours of 4 a.m. and 9 a.m.
Lime predicted that the newly launched congestion pricing plan, which charges drivers a toll for entering Manhattan below 60th Street, could lead to increased ridership on its electric scooters.
The program expanded into Queens in 2024, based on its purported success in the Bronx, which saw a 51% increase in unique riders compared to 2023.
