Bundaberg’s e-scooter rental trial gets underway today, with 250 bright orange Neuron e-scooters being deployed across the city. In partnership with Bundaberg Regional Council, Neuron is deploying e-scooters across Bundaberg Central, Bundaberg East, Bundaberg West and the Bundaberg Botanic Gardens, there will also be a second operating area in Bargara.

Working closely with the Council, geofencing technology is used to control the riding area and create dedicated parking zones and no-go zones in specific areas across the city to improve safety. 

Our latest N3 e-scooters have been purpose-built for safety and renting. They have an impressive range of world-first safety features and pioneering innovations, which include: the world’s first app-controlled helmet lock which secures a helmet to every e-scooter in between trips; topple detection; a 000 emergency button; voice guidance to educate and warn riders on how to ride safely; a “Follow my Ride” function; and more to come in the pipeline.

Riders can book and use the e-scooters through Neuron’s user-friendly app, which can be downloaded from the App Store or Google Play and set up in a matter of minutes. Single trips will cost AU$1 to unlock the e-scooter and 38 cents per minute thereafter. More frequent users have the option to purchase Neuron Passes, a subscription service, available in three-day (AU$25), weekly (AU$33), or monthly (AU$89) options. The packages will allow users to ride as many times as they want for up to 90 minutes per day for a fixed affordable price. This will result in no additional unlocking fees and savings of up to 90%.

Happy riding!
