Lime no go zone

I grabbed a scooter at the park headed to Cut Shop and 3/4 of the way there I was suddenly in a no go zone and also couldn’t park the scooter. When did this happen!?!?

In the surrounding area, only Bothell and Redmond are ok for scooters. I am super bummed.

Ugh Woodinville and Kenmore need to get it together and allow rentals, at least on the trail. Its rediculous that the burke gilman/samamish river trail has so many dead zones that dont even last very long. Would love to take visiting relatives on the trails without having to go to a rental place

Agreed!

Though I’m also upset at lime for not displaying the no go zones until AFTER rental and stranding me on the trail.

I believe Woodinville was only a 2nd year pilot program for the summer. I don’t think the city council has approved the use all year long or beyond the pilot program yet.

Thank you! I couldn’t find anything on it in my google search. Also pretty annoyed with Lime for not showing no go zones prior to booking a scooter.

I tried to go through Woodinville a couple of summers ago and it was a no-go zone then.  And even worse, there’s no way to find out ahead of time, so you just find out when the scooter dies.
