Mode Share Changes in California: An Exploratory Analysis of Factors Affecting Decreases in Walking, Biking and Transit Use from 2012 to 2017

Research Product Type
White Paper
This paper compares factors impacting mode shares in 2012 and in 2017 to answer part of the question about why we see this decrease in the use of active modes over this period and what types of planning, programs, and policy actions may help to reverse this trend and get California back on track to increase walking, biking and the use of public transit.

North American Micromobility Panel

  • Principal Investigator Dillon Fitch-Polse, Ph.D.
  • University of California, Davis
This project focuses on answering research questions pertaining to what travel modes do people shift from when they use micromobility services, how frequently do people use micromobility services, how different are users and non-users in terms of attitudes and travel behavior, potential barriers for widespread adoption, and how variations in micromobility services differ in their appeal to users and in the attitudes of non-users.
