Bird launched a pilot program with Pittsfield last spring, and Residents of and visitors to Pittsfield completed over 25,000 rides on Bird Scooters in 2022 enjoying an affordable, eco-friendly alternative to cars that allowed residents to get around efficiently and encouraged visitors to explore the city.
With the advent of the Bird e-scooters in Pittsfield, available to anyone with a license, a few cents, and a cell phone, I hope that Berkshire Medical Center's emergency room is ready for the traumatic brain injuries coming down the road.
