Abu Dhabi-based Provis announced its partnership with micro-mobility company Circ to provide e-scooters for residents across several communities such as Golf Gardens, Al Raha Gardens, Sun & Sky and Gate & Arc in Abu Dhabi will be among the first Provis’s communities to use e-scooters.
“As part of our vision, Provis has always been keen to offering green and innovative ways for our communities to ensure a seamless experience and manage all customers’ needs and expectations”, said HP Aengaar, Chief Executive Officer at Provis. “Our partnership with Circ highlights our continued efforts to achieve this objective, through providing an environmentally friendly alternative means of transportation across several communities that we manage in Abu Dhabi.”
Circ will hold offline education and training events at these communities to ensure the highest levels of safety and best possible driving experience to customers as they promote micro mobility.
Jaideep Dhanoa, Co-Founder and CEO, Circ MENA, added “The UAE has a unique opportunity to lead the global community in developing cleaner, safer and better-connected journeys. With this agreement we will offer Provis’s communities with an alternative, fully-electric transportation option that is quicker and more convenient for short-distance trips within and around a community, enables first and last mile travel to public transport locations, and is equitable and affordable for all income brackets. We are delighted to be working with Provis as they help us achieve our mission to serve affordable, sustainable and better-connected journeys for everyone.”
Bader Al Kalooti, Co-Founder and COO, Circ MENA, added “We use purpose-built e-scooters tailored to the region and invest in the necessary operational infrastructure in order to provide the highest service standards and the most optimal experience for users. Given our focus on safety first, we have also invested in comprehensive insurance for all rides in the UAE, including personal accident, 3rd party liability and product liability coverage”.
Simultaneously, both entities will work together to establish operating parameters including GEO zones, go/no-go zones, speed limits, parking and hotspot locations in the designated communities, ensuring the scooters add value to residents’ living experience in all Provis managed communities without inconveniencing any stakeholders.
