Beryl e-scooters are coming to Plymouth
Beryl's shared e-scooters are coming to Plymouth as part of the UK Government’s National E-Scooter Trial, providing residents and visitors with another convenient and sustainable way to travel. The new e-scooters will operate alongside our existing e-bike scheme, with both services continuing to be available across the city. Like our bikes, every e-scooter journey starts and ends at a designated Beryl Bay.
Designed specifically for safe urban travel, Beryl e-scooters feature front and rear lights, GPS-enabled Go-Slow Zones, reliable braking and controlled parking to support responsible riding. To get started, simply unlock an e-scooter in the Beryl app, enjoy your journey, then return it to a designated Beryl Bay to end your ride.
For everything you need to know about the trial, including eligibility, how it works, FAQs and safety guidance, visit our dedicated Plymouth e-scooter information page or learn more through our free Scoot Happy training programme.

Ros and Vicky's story
Out of bay charge
A £10 convenience fee will be charged for bikes left outside of a Beryl Bay
Out of zone fee
Our operating zone covers a large area. A £25 convenience fee will be charged for bikes locked outside the Beryl zone.
If the bike is not brought back into the operating zone within 24 hours, an additional £80 fee will be charged to cover the cost of recovering the bike.
Unlocked bike fee
At the end of your ride, please make sure you lock your bike correctly whether in or out of a bay. When you lock the bike, it will chime to let you know. Please check in the app to make sure your bike has correctly registered as locked.
A flat fee of £10 will be charged to cover the cost of us sending our operations team out to lock the bike on your behalf.
