The Region of Waterloo has announced that green e-scooters and e-bikes from Lime Technology Canada have begun rolling out in Cambridge, Kitchener, and Waterloo. Up to 500 e-bikes and 500 e-scooters will be deployed, in addition to adaptive vehicles for riders of varying abilities from the Lime Assist program.

Neuron Canada first launched a rental program for their orange e-scooters, e-bikes, and accessible vehicles in Waterloo Region in 2023. After being acquired by Lime Technology Canada in Jul. 2026, Neuron began removing vehicles from the local area, despite their agreement with the Region of Waterloo being scheduled to continue until Oct. 2026. At the time of the acquisition, Lime had expressed interest in working with the cities to continue Neuron’s rental program.

UW is still examining the details of the new program in relation to how it would operate on campus. “Micromobility options help connect our campuses with the broader community. The University is examining the details of the program for properties within Waterloo Region, and we are still completing our review,” said Mat Thijssen, Director of Sustainability.

Imprint has also reached out to the City of Waterloo for specifics about the rollout on UW campuses and is awaiting further comment.

Lime e-bikes and e-scooters will be available for rent until Oct. 31. City staff will be monitoring community reception and sharing data with their respective councils. Riders can visit Lime’s website or download the Lime app for costs, availability, and booking.
