Evaluating Remote Repositioning for Shared Scooters Overview Utilization of vehicles, commonly measured in trips per vehicle per day, is a key to economic and environmental sustainability of shared micromobility (i.e. bikeshare and scootershare) services. With large capital costs tied up in bikes or scooters, a micromobility operator needs its vehicles to be used frequently to…

Crowdsourcing Parking Data for Micromobility Vehicles

Crowdsourcing Parking Data for Micromobility Vehicles Overview As dockless micromobility services become more commonplace, so too are instances of mis-parked bikes and scooters, and associated complaints from other travelers and residents. Concerns over problems with parking are responsible for delaying or limiting the scale of dockless services in some cities, which limits the utility of…

Designing and Managing Infrastructure for Shared Connected Electric Vehicles

Designing and Managing Infrastructure for Shared Connected Electric Vehicles Overview The research team developed a trajectory synthesizer that allows for selection of number of trips and time block during the day and then predicts the trajectory of a carshare vehicle based on a given start location. Electric vehicles (EVs) generally lead to a reduction in…
