Summary
Sydneys e-bike boom is causing chaos, with millions of trips and tens of thousands of bikes overwhelming public spaces. Despite previous issues with share bikes, companies are back, bigger than ever. The city is divided, with some embracing the eco-friendly travel option and others fed up with the mess. Local councils are stuck in the middle, struggling to enforce new laws that aim to make companies pay for parking and enforcement, but may not cover their costs. The state government and bike companies must collaborate to manage this new wave of transportation effectively. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
