Electric scooters could be on their way to Salina in the near future after a company that offers the service made a presentation to the City Commission Monday. Bird, the transportation company that operates electric scooter-share programs in places around the world, presented during the commission’s study session Monday and said it would like to see Salina added as the next city in Kansas to hop on the scooter-share model. “Electronic scooters have become a new and modern form of transportation using a variety of different ways,” said Lauren Driscoll, the director of development services for the City of Salina. “(Scooters) are used both for pleasure and travel and tourism, but also for what we call ‘last-mile’ in the transportation world.”
