Bird scooters and e-bikes have made a comeback to the City of Green Bay, marking the fourth consecutive year of partnership between the city and the environmentally friendly electric transportation company. The shared e-scooters and e-bikes, accessible through Bird's mobile app, aim to provide a sustainable alternative to traditional gas-powered vehicles for various daily trips.

Mayor Eric Genrich expressed his enthusiasm for the return of Bird scooters and e-bikes, stating, "We are happy to welcome back Bird scooters and e-bikes to the City of Green Bay. I know the bikes and scooters will be great options for our residents as they go about their daily lives."

Jimmy Gilman, Manager of Government Partnerships at Bird, highlighted the company's commitment to promoting environmentally friendly transportation in Green Bay, stating, "Bird is excited to again be working with Green Bay to offer an environmentally-friendly transportation mode that connects residents and visitors to their jobs, local business, and other vital destinations."

The e-scooters and e-bikes provided by Bird offer a convenient and enjoyable way to navigate Green Bay while reducing car trips, traffic congestion, and carbon emissions. Equipped with GPS technology, the vehicles have speed limits of 15mph for scooters and 20mph for e-bikes, ensuring safe and efficient rides within designated areas.

To promote accessibility and community engagement, Bird offers various programs, including Community Pricing for low-income riders, veterans, and senior citizens, as well as free rides for healthcare workers and emergency personnel. Additionally, the Community Mode feature allows users to report vehicle-related issues for prompt resolution.
