Problem Statement

Public agencies and state and local governments often impose various regulations on shared mobility services. These regulations vary widely by place and mode, and the costs and benefits of these regulations are poorly understood. This project aims to categorize shared mobility regulations, identify their intents and impacts, and to better understand the balance of regulations.

Outcomes & Deliverables

– Report on shared mobility regulations
– Academic articles for each report section
– Methodology document for shared mobility regulatory index
– Toolkit for communities interested in adopting shared mobility to identify an appropriate regulatory mix
