Next Webinar - Planning for New Forms of Micromobility

 


Wednesday, September 18 at 3:00 p.m. EDT

New forms of micromobility are bringing new opportunities to urban mobility but also new challenges. E-bikes, cargo bikes, e-scooters, electric one-wheels and other new forms of micromobility are introducing complexities of speed and size that don't align with traditional pedal bikes nor with motor vehicles. Meanwhile, popularity of these devices is exploding, and city planners and policymakers need to be ready to respond. How do cities accommodate the substantial benefits of these new device types while also maintaining safe and effective operations on streets and trails? This session will systematically outline the challenges new forms of micromobility pose and then explore infrastructure, education, and regulatory options to meet each challenge.
