said a council report published ahead of a cabinet meeting next week detailed how a contractor would be sought to run the scheme in both cities. The report said: "The previous e-bike scheme in Derby was a huge success until it was targeted by criminals, as widely reported in the media at the time.

At Wednesday's meeting, cabinet members will be asked to approve funding of more than £1m for the scheme.
