The decision was made by the Finance and Resources Committee on 21 November 2025.
The scheme is set to launch in Spring 2026 with at least 200 E-Bikes available for hire around the clock via a Mobile Phone app.
The previous scheme ended in Spring 2024, and public interest has prompted its reinstatement.
Aberdeen City Council will provide £200,000 from the Low Emission Zone surplus to support operations over three years, with no further funding expected as the scheme aims to become self-sustaining.
The operator will handle all aspects including infrastructure, maintenance, and reporting, with compliance to performance indicators required.
Profit-sharing will apply if the contract extends to years four and five.
