The Lime e-bike hire service, introduced earlier this month across the West Midlands including Solihull, replaced the previous Beryl Bikes. Unlike docked schemes, the new Lime bikes do not require fixed docking stations but are intended to be left within designated parking zones. At the full council meeting on April 14, Councillor James Bradley highlighted sightings of several Lime bikes left in inappropriate locations such as Olton station—which lacks a cycle hire parking area—and on grass verges near DoveHouse Parade.
