New York lawmakers reached an agreement on a bill to legalize e-scooters and e-bikes across the state and are expected to vote on the matter this Wednesday, the New York Post reports.

However, the language in the bill specifically bars New York City from launching an e-scooter sharing system in Manhattan.
