According to Limeβs β2025 Ride Replay,β released Monday, electric scooter and bike-share riders took 9.7 million trips in Seattle βΒ a 61% jump from 2024βs total.
Areas around the Market proved to be a popular spot to end trips for residents and tourists alike. Other highlights included:

- The single highest ridership day was Sept. 27, with just under 60,000 trips.
