Food delivery times will not be affected much by new rules requiring cyclists and riders of personal mobility devices (PMDs) like e-scooters to lower their speed limits on footpaths from 15kmh to 10kmh.
That is the assurance from some food delivery providers, even as the safety of their riders and other road users remains their top priority.
