An amended ordinance that allows the operation of electric scooters in Chicago between midnight and 5 a.m. has been passed by the Committee on License and Consumer Protection on Wednesday and is now headed to the full City Council for approval. This move is aimed at providing more commuting options for late-shift workers. Additionally, starting Thursday, Chicago riders will be able to request taxi service through Uber's app, marking a significant expansion of commuting options in the city.
