Nottingham was one of several trial locations arranged by the [[Department for Transport]] to facilitate local journeys by [[Motorized scooter|electric scooter]]s. Started in October 2020 together with [[Derby City Council]], in December 2023 the trial was extended until 2026. Riders must be 18 years of age minimum, hold a full provisional driving licence, must ride on roads and bus lanes only, not pedestrian footways, and pay by mobile-phone app.<ref>{{cite web | last=Locker | first=Joe | title=Decision taken on extension of city's e-scooter scheme | website=Nottinghamshire Live | date=2023-12-05 | url=https://www.nottinghampost.com/news/nottingham-news/nottingham-e-scooter-scheme-extended-8954444 }}</ref>

In late December 2023, the partner-business, US-based [[Superpedestrian]], planned to cease trading by 31 December, and the scooters were withdrawn from their city centre locations.<ref>{{cite web | last=Hartley | first=Joshua | title=Disappearance of city's 'nuisance' e-scooters welcomed by residents | website=Nottinghamshire Live | date=2023-12-27 | url=https://www.nottinghampost.com/news/nottingham-news/disappearance-nottinghams-nuisance-e-scooters-8999512 }}</ref> Nottingham City Council are to seek a new provider to continue the scheme.
