Abstract

At present day, there are little to no policies around the use and implementation of micro-mobility in many cities. At the national level, there are no specific guidelines that outline how micro-mobility parameters should be implemented in a city. The National Transportation Board has left it up to
metropolitan districts to decide on how to gauge the decision to install micro-mobility systems in their cities. However, best practice guidelines have been identified by the National Association of City Transportation Officials (NACTO) and the U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration (FHWA).
