A push to get more bike lanes, as the Government eyes up moving e-scooters onto them, from pathways.

ACC statistics show there were more than two thousand 100 claims for e-scooter related injuries in the first half of this year. 

Payouts for e-scooter injuries this year are close to surpassing 14-million. 

Cycling Action Spokesperson Patrick Morgan told Ryan Bridge e-scooters are here to stay, so councils need to build more bike lanes to meet demand.

He says we don't need a bike lane on every street, just on main thoroughfares where people want to go.
