In the last week’s blog, we discussed how the warehouses have put electric scooters to use by using them to get people quickly around those whole halls and even move packages by using attachable carts but the story doesn’t end there. Recently more and more areas of life are seeing the benefits of having a quick, easy, intuitive and less space taking transport methods than even bikes. 

University students love escooters

Everyone remembers the special bicycle and car parking spaces reserved in their schools and colleges that had to be set aside to not be in the way. You couldn’t leave your bike just anywhere.

Well, now many University Campuses are being taken by storm with escooters. Campuses are also seeing the benefits with the students’ new choice of transport since electric scooters don’t take much space and can even be folded to store.

We at Langfeite can understand why students love escooters. Those huge campus areas can be tricky if you have a class at the opposite end of the campus. You don’t want to keep your Professor waiting so better hop on to that escooter.

Campuses for ridesharing or owning your own?

Many students also opt to get their own escooter as campuses are not that happy with the ride-sharing models as those need to be managed and charged by companies themselves instead of students themselves. The usual collection by trucks and taking to designated charging sites during the night is a hassle when it’s a campus area that’s supposed to be mostly open just for students. 

Still, the model is still evolving and universities are starting to resolve issues related to escooters after some 2-year pilots have ended in the US universities.

Currently, the solutions are aiming to increase charging stations, decrease clutters by using forced-parking areas, and give free helmets for students. Most likely the in-campus traffic is going to look like a miniature version of what the cities are adopting now except smaller fleets of rental scooters and more private ones. After all the campus areas are mostly free from cars and other vehicles so the usability of electric scooters gets to a whole different level.

In recent news from the University of Arkansas students expressed how escooters were an important and convenient way for them to zoom around campus to go meet their friends and get to classes in time. And the Students of Martel College had similar experiences from escooters.

Ride the Wave of Escooter Boom

We here at Langfeite believe that we will see more and more areas and use cases for escooters in the future and the current trend of escooters is just the beginning. If you want to ride the wave of the escooter boom contact Langfeite today!
