State Senator Jay Costa Looking To Bring E-Scooters To Pittsburgh

By: KDKA-TV News Staff

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) - If you've seen the charging stations for electric scooters around Pittsburgh, you might be surprised to learn that they're not legal - yet.

That could change soon as State Sen. Jay Costa is attempting to pass a bill that would legalize the scooters here in Pittsburgh.

Sen. Costa's bill would be part of a pilot program for "Move PGH."

The city hopes for people to be able to use a single app to rent scooters, bikes and cars, as well as to ride Port Authority buses and light rails.
