Those orange e-scooters are popping up across Waterloo Region once again.

The Neuron e-scooters returned to dozens of spots across Kitchener, Waterloo, and Cambridge on Saturday.

This marks the second year for the e-scooters and e-bikes following their launch in April 2023.

Neuron says its riders have travelled nearly 400,000 kilometers since then.

"In 2023, there were over 143,669 trips on Waterloo's multi-use trails by people using Neuron's shared e-bikes and e-scooters, which is a significant increase in use," said Waterloo Mayor Dorothy McCabe in a news release.

The devices can be accessed and paid for via the Neuron app.
