Electric scooter riders have welcomed the lifting of a ban on private e-scooters on Victorian roads as part of a major shake-up in a state government trial.
The changes include an extension to hire scooter trials in four council areas in Ballarat and inner Melbourne.
Roads and Road Safety Minister Melissa Horne said the trials have been an "enormous success".
"In Ballarat, there have been more than 200,000 short trips that have been taken during the course of this trial, and predominantly they've been used for economic purposes, like to get to the shops, to get to a venue," she said.
