A to Z of how to develop an on-demand e-scooter application like Circ in Abu Dhabi
Berlin-based mobility startup Circ is the first Government approved to deploy e-scooters in the UAE. Circ was allowed to offer services on pedestrian and cycle paths during the first phase that includes the Corniche and Khalifa Street in Abu Dhabi.
But in the first 150 days of operation, Riders of Abu Dhabi have traveled over 500,000 km on Circ. Circ then launched e-scooters in the capital recently Reem Island, Al Maryah Island and Al Dana.
Earlier this year, in January, after the American E-scooter firm Bird acquired Circ, both are committed to the Mena region and will be expanding to additional markets this year. Circ has already started operations in Ras al Khaimah before the deal, offering scooter rentals in partnership with the RAK Transport Authority.
