STUFF All Lime e-scooters in New Zealand have undergone a software update since a glitch which saw wheels lock was discovered. Lime spokeswoman Kate Cullen would not say if any Lime scooters in Christchurch had been affected by the braking issue. DAVID WALKER/STUFF The Christchurch City Council will decide on Thursday whether to issue Lime with a 12-month permit to operate in the city at a cost of $86.25 per scooter per year.
