Equitable shared-use mobility using electric vehicles.  

Transportation services and resources that are shared among users, either concurrently or one after another.  This encompasses a variety of transportation options, including public transit, taxis and limousines, bikesharing, carsharing (round-trip, one-way, and personal vehicle sharing), ridesharing (car-pooling, van-pooling), ridesourcing, scooter sharing, shuttle services, neighborhood jitneys, and commercial delivery vehicles providing flexible movement of goods.

A business that uses a digital network to connect a rider to a driver to provide a prearranged ride.

A service that provides members with access to an automobile for short-term – usually hourly – use. Major carsharing business models include traditional or round-trip, which requires users to borrow and return vehicles at the same location; one-way or free-floating, which allows users to pick up a vehicle at one location and drop it off at another. Carshare provides most of the benefits of a personal automobile without the costs of owning a private vehicle.

Involves adding passengers to a private trip in which driver and passengers share a common destination. Such an arrangement provides additional transportation options for riders while allowing drivers to fill otherwise empty seats in their vehicles.

Physical locations that house various electric, shared-use mobility services and EV charging stations to promote connectivity through zero-emission transportation. These sites are often located at our near public transit to facilitate longer trips, while filling first- and last-mile gaps in transportation.

A system of transporting individuals along a prescribed route according to a fixed schedule. These services typically use buses, vans, or other medium-duty vehicles.

A technology-enable service that uses multi-passenger vehicles to provide on-demand services with dynamically generated routing. Microtransit services are usually provided in designated services areas, using provisional pickup and drop-off points within a few minutes’ walk of multiple customers. These services require professional driver, typically employed through a purchased transportation arrangement with a vendor or employed directly by a transit agency.

This includes services used by traditional taxi companies and Transportation Network Companies (TNCs). TNCs, like Uber and Lyft, connect passengers with drivers through online platforms that allow them to schedule and pay for on-demand transportation services. Drivers typically use personal, non-commercial vehicles to complete these trips.

Fleets of small, low-speed vehicles, primarily used for single-person short trips in urban areas with good connectivity and a density of destinations.  It serves as a first and last mile option that is faster than hailing a taxi, walking, or transferring to low-frequency transit. Common forms of micromobility include bikeshare and scootershare, as well as semi-motorized variants of these modes. Typical trips are 1-3 miles, but some trips can be much longer, especially when aided by an electric vehicle.
