Saudi Arabia Halts Issuance of New Licenses for Delivery Bikes
In a surprising move, Saudi Arabia has announced that they will no longer be granting new licenses for delivery bikes. This decision has sent shockwaves through the delivery industry, as many businesses rely on these bikes to quickly and efficiently deliver goods to customers.
The Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs made the announcement, stating that the decision was made in order to regulate the delivery sector and ensure the safety of both delivery drivers and pedestrians. This comes after a rise in accidents involving delivery bikes in recent years.
Delivery companies are now scrambling to find alternative methods of transportation to continue serving their customers. Some are turning to traditional delivery vans, while others are exploring the use of electric scooters and other forms of transportation.
The impact of this decision is sure to be felt across the country, as delivery services have become an essential part of everyday life for many Saudi residents. Only time will tell how businesses will adapt to this new regulation and what the future holds for the delivery industry in Saudi Arabia.
