Port Huron leaders are moving to tighten sidewalk safety rules as electric bikes and scooters become more common across the city. A proposed ordinance would ban motor-powered use of e-bikes, scooters, and mopeds on sidewalks, though riders could still use them if pedaling or pushing without the motor. The plan also sets new rules for regular bicycles, including a 15 mile per hour speed limit, yielding to pedestrians, staying to the right, and giving an audible warning before passing. Violations would be treated as civil infractions if approved.
