American Micromobility Panel: Part 1

Research Product Type
Research Report
This report presents preliminary findings from the American Micromobility Panel, the largest study of shared micromobility services in the United States incorporating riders from multiple major operators.

Extending public transit through micromobility facilities and services in the Bay Area

Research Product Type
Policy Brief
UC Davis researchers and urban design experts considered factors affecting public micromobility use -- such as secure parking availability and other environmental design features -- in this case study of the Bay Area Rapid Transit heavy rail system. This brief includes ways to integrate micromobility in public transit to improve first- and last-mile connectivity for riders.

Integrating Micromobility with Public Transit: A Case Study of the California Bay Area

Research Product Type
Research Report
This research covered environmental audits at 18 BART stations, an online survey of BART and micromobility users, and interviews with government, industry, and community stakeholders. Recommendations were made for: station design, including greater availability of shared micromobility vehicles, more affordable secure parking for personal micromobility, better signage and wayfinding, protected bike lanes and consistent design standards for bike facilities.

Sustainability of Micromobility Services: VMT Reduction and Transit Connection

  • Principal Investigator Dillon Fitch-Polse, Ph.D.
  • University of California, Davis
In this project, the research team will quantify the magnitude of micromobility service effects on vehicle miles of travel (VMT) through triangulation and synthesis of three primary travel behaviors: mode substitution, transit connection, and driving/ride-hailing behavior.
