Another first for Llangollen ...

Llanblogger understands that a feasibility study is being proposed to provide a bank of self-drive mobility scooters for use by visitors and residents to travel around the town.

* Sat nav guided mobility scooters could whiz visitors around the town.

The scooters would be sat nav contolled and preloaded with optional tours around the town’s attractions and to specific locations such as Plas Newydd,  The Wharf  or a particular shop.    

They would be coin operated and fully controlled by a location tracking system.

The main scooter bank and charging point would be in Market Street car park with some other satellite drop off and charging points strategically located around the town.

Spokesperson for the group  David Davies said this would be another marketing first for Llangollen and a strong attraction for the less agile visitors to explore and take full advantage of what the town has to offer, increasing  the visitor experience and  trade opportunities for local businesses.
