Ride-hailing giants Lyft and Uber will continue services in Minneapolis until July 1, following a decision by city officials to delay a driver pay raise implementation. The Minneapolis City Council voted to delay the start of a minimum wage policy for rideshare drivers to July 1 instead of May 1, to $15.57 per hour. Originally, Lyft and Uber planned to cease operations in Minneapolis on May 1. The city council voted in March to ensure rideshare drivers are paid a minimum wage after protests on Valentine’s Day demanded fair pay and working conditions.
