Lime Micro Mobility Program

Micromobility provider Lime serves the City of Airway Heights with a fleet of multimodal vehicles, including both electric bikes and scooters.

Multimodal programs are an important element for the community’s access to transit, shopping, personal services and employment. Mobility devices can serve as a convenient tool for ‘first and last’ mile access to transit, bridging distances that are barriers to walking for transit.  They serve as one method to allow for ready access to services for households that lack a vehicle, as well as reduce the reliance on vehicles for services and jobs.  Lime also provides access for households and individuals who do not have access to a smart phone.

Mobility devices are one strategy to encourage multimodal travel in our community, and can reduce vehicle use on the already congested US Highway 2 by increasing utilization of the City’s roadway network.

Mobility devices will be staged in areas throughout the Airway Heights Community during the summer months, typically beginning in or around April, and running through the end of October.
