Austria restricts e-moped couriers on bike lanes, creating safety dilemma

Austria is implementing new rules from Thursday that restrict food delivery couriers using e-mopeds on bike lanes, a shift from previous practice. This creates a dilemma for couriers who rely on faster, unregistered e-mopeds for efficiency, potentially impacting delivery times and safety. The change reflects a policy response to urban safety concerns, but its operational impact on the gig economy remains uncertain.
