Since the first modern North American bike share system launched in 2009, shared micromobility has revolutionized urban transportation. Shared bike and e-scooter systems are now integral parts of city transportation networks. They play an important role in cities’ livability and sustainability efforts by making it safer, cheaper, and easier for people to get around.
NACTO facilitates conversations between peer cities about shared micromobility through roundtables, workshops, and webinars. We also conduct research on trends, best practices, and challenges in regulating shared micromobility systems. Our policy papers and reports help cities understand how to design, procure, and manage these transit options to best meet their needs.
Our work is made possible, in part, by the Better Bike Share Partnership.
