Early Findings
The number of shared micromobility trips in the US increased by more than twice in 2018 as compared to 2017 reaching
84 million shared trips
.
Out of these,
38.5 million
were scooter share trips,
9 million
were dockless bike share trips,
6.5 million
were e-bike trips,
36.5 million
were station-based bike share trips with some of them overlapping others.
At the end of 2018, more than
85,000 e-scooters
were publicly available in 100 cities in the US.
There used to be
tens of thousands
of dockless bikes, which have largely disappeared except for Seattle.
