With spring around the corner, there is no better time to start traversing Syracuse on two wheels 

Veo’s scooters and e-bikes have returned to Syracuse with an expanded fleet following a winter hiatus. Since launching in 2021, the micromobility program has expanded at a steady pace, creating mobility options for Syracuse residents without a vehicle. Of the nearly 500 Syracuse residents who took Veo’s 2023 rider survey, more than 50% of them don’t own or have access to a car.

HOW TO RIDE

- Locate a ride: Riders aged 18+ can locate vehicles using the free VeoRide app.

- Unlock and go: Using the VeoRide app, riders scan a QR code and pay $1 to unlock the vehicle. Riders then pay a $0.31 per-minute rate for the duration of their trip.

- End your ride: Upon completion of the ride, riders park their vehicle in designated parking locations and take a photo within the app to confirm proper parking.

DO

- Yield to pedestrians

- Park responsibly- Wear a helmet

DON'T
