Your chance to tell the City of Red Deer what you think of all those E-scooters

E-scooter pilot program wraps up for the summer

E-scooters are rolling out of Red Deer, after a very successful first summer of a three summer pilot project in Red Deer. While The City has heard from residents informally, and via social media channels about e-scooters,
we want to formally collect resident feedback about e-scooters.

The City wants to know what residents thought about e-scooters in Red Deer. A survey is available online now through November 15, which may lead to modifications for the second season and will help form the final report back to City Council after the full pilot program has wrapped. This feedback will help determine if e-scooters will remain a permanent part of our summer transportation options after the pilot program.

Residents can visit reddeer.ca/escooter to take the short survey and ensure their thoughts and ideas are included in our research.

E-scooters are officially on Red Deer streets until October 31, and are set to return March 15, 2022 – or later, depending on when spring arrives, for the second summer pilot. Through public feedback and data collection, The City will determine whether and under what circumstances e-scooters will be permitted to continue operating after the pilot ends.

Plan Ahead: Voting May Take a Little Longer This Election Day

Published on October 20, 2025

City of Red Deer

News release from the City of Red Deer

Voters are encouraged to plan their vote and allow a little extra time at the polls this Election Day, Monday, October 20.

Because this year’s election uses Alberta’s new Permanent Elector Registry, voting may take slightly longer than in previous years. Municipalities are required to provide updated voter information back to the province after the election. As a result, many voters will be asked to complete an Elector Register Form (Form 13) at the voting station — even if they are already registered to vote. This ensures that voter information is accurate and up to date. Once the registry information has been updated, all forms are securely shredded.

Additionally, the Permanent Elector Registry is not shared with local school boards, so anyone voting for a School Board Trustee must also complete an Elector Register Form (Form 13).

We appreciate voters’ patience as our election teams work to ensure every eligible voter can cast their ballot accurately and securely. Once the voting process begins, most voters complete their vote in about 10 minutes.

To help avoid lineups, voters can visit Red Deer Elections website to check real-time wait times at each voting station and choose the location with the shortest line.

Anyone who arrives at a polling station and joins a line before 8 p.m. will be able to vote.

Thank you for your understanding and for taking the time to make your voice heard in Red Deer’s 2025 Municipal and School Board Election.
