From a press release:
“Bird also announced it secured approval to scale its e-scooter fleet in Washington, D.C., by more than 20% to provide residents and visitors with an eco-friendly personal transportation option. With the price of gas in D.C. recently reaching an all-time high, Bird has seen daily average ridership in Washington, D.C., increase nearly 48% in March compared to February.”
Ed. Note: In real numbers this translates to Bird having 1,970 scooters total in D.C. and the additional scooters will be deployed later this week.
