Dott join Urban Mobility Partnership

Tendo have today welcomed shared micromobility operator Dott to the Urban Mobility Partnership adding their expertise to the partnership which is campaigning to secure effective policy at a national, regional and local level to tackle the major challenges of congestion, air quality and climate change.

Dott will join as the Urban Mobility Partnership’s e-scooter provider, following its successful bid to be one of three operators participating in London’s recently launched trial. The expansion of the remit of the Urban Mobility Partnership to cover the full breadth of the mobility landscape, reflects the growing prevalence of micromobility solutions and their role in creating the multi modal transport systems of the future that place the consumer and their needs at its heart.  

Dott currently operate over 20,000 e-scooters in 15 European cities spanning Belgium, France, Germany, Italy and Poland. The organisation achieved carbon neutrality in 2019 and is committed to environmental sustainability. Dott are currently operating e-scooters across six London Boroughs as part of the capital’s e-scooter trial.

On 7 June, TfL and London Councils announced the start of London’s rental e-scooter trial in a core group of boroughs, Canary Wharf and the City of London with more areas expected to join the 12-month trial as it progresses. Dott has been appointed alongside Lime and TIER to take part in the trial after a process where their ability to meet strict safety requirements and high operating standards was carefully considered.
