From The Press & Journal:
Another ill thought out green scheme hits the buffers!

The Big Issue Ebikes started disappearing from many of their parking locations recently, with the app telling users there are ongoing “upgrades” being carried out.
But on Friday, Aberdeen City Council confirmed Big Issue Sharebikes’ intentions to pull out of the contract.
While the scheme’s future remains unclear, more than 100 of the red and white ebikes have been left sitting outside a unit in the Altens Industrial Estate.
The Press and Journal visited the unit just off Souter Head Road today and saw the rows of ebikes stacked outside.
