Over the past few years, shared micromobility services have proliferated in cities across the country, rapidly transforming the mobility landscape. These new mobility services, such as bikes, e-bikes, e-scooters and more, offer a wealth of potential benefits to our communities by contributing to city goals related to equity, access to jobs and services, climate, and more. In order to achieve these goals, these services will need to be thoughtfully managed to ensure that the benefits accrue equitably to everyone in the community. 
 
The Shared Micromobility Playbook is intended to help cities better understand the variety of policy levers at their disposal and explores the core components of a comprehensive shared micromobility policy as local governments determine how best to manage these services.  We will review the Playbook, examine some of the key policy areas for cities to consider and hear from the Cities of Santa Monica and Minneapolis on how they have approached regulating micromobility in their communities.

Thanks to Drew and Damien!  I’ll be there.  I hope other BB members will participate.  Our learning can help us make authoritative bicycle infrastructure recommendations.

Bicycle Board Members, 
 
I think this webinar would be good for us to learn how the FWHA says bicycle infrastructure be designed.  I registered for it.  If you also plan to participate, please let me know.  Perhaps we could find a location to participate together.  Could be fun:)

Webinar Announcement

Upcoming Webinar on Designing for Bicyclist Safety

 
Designing for Bicyclist Safety
Tuesday, January 22, 2019

1:00-2:30 pm Eastern Time
 
 

Based on a course developed and taught by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), this webinar will provide an overview of roadway design strategies and tools to improve bicyclist safety and applicable countermeasures and designs to address safety issues. The session will provide context for considering bicyclists in the transportation system and introduce a range of facility types and treatments. Brooke Struve (FHWA Resource Center) will lead the webinar and spend time responding to questions from attendees.

This Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) Office of Safety webinar will be delivered by VHB and the UNC Highway Safety Research Center through a contract to provide training and technical assistance to the FHWA-designated Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Focus States and Cities.



PBIC offers free, public webinars approximately every month. To register for upcoming webinars and to access archived presentations, please visit www.pedbikeinfo.org/webinars.
