beginners&#8217; guide to getting an EV<\/p>\n<p><!--[if lte IE 8]><![endif]--><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>In July 2021, the City of Pittsburgh launched<span>\u00a0<\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/move-pgh.com\/\">Move PGH<\/a>, a two-year pilot scheme to create mobility hubs where people can access all the city\u2019s transit options \u2014 buses, bikes, mopeds and escooters \u2014 in one place.<\/p>\n<p>The programme is designed to boost equity but also serves as a useful tool for gathering data on <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/trip-and-travel\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"10\" title=\"Trip &amp; Travel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">travel<\/a> trends, which can be used to better inform future policy.<\/p>\n<p>Almost a year into the project, Tosh Chambers, Senior Programme Director at InnovatePGH, reflected on how this city-led approach to shifting mobility is evolving.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve been tracking some of the escooter data to recognize who is using it and why \u2014 and now we have an understanding of the demographics,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s been pretty representative, at least in terms of race, of the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a> Pittsburgh population and we\u2019ve seen a lot of utilization in the under-40 category.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There has been some concern among transport leaders that escooters may take trips away from walking, cycling or public transport, but Chambers believes a healthy balance is being struck.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve also been tracking what [modes of travel] people are using e-scooters instead of, and it\u2019s apparent that [escooters] replace 25-30 percent of trips that would have been driven or ridden in a car,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA smaller number of walking and transit trips were replaced as well but seeing this number of car trips being replaced [with escooters] is exciting to know,\u201d he added. \u201cThere also hasn\u2019t been a decrease in public transport ridership or our bikeshare system \u2014 which is non-profit, and something we want to protect \u2014 since the escooters have been introduced, so that\u2019s a positive as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With the project nearing its halfway point, the city is preparing to release a report on the progress so far.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOf course there\u2019s a lot more that we want to learn and we\u2019ll continue to track how people are using [escooters] to connect to transit,\u201d Chambers said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe want to make sure it\u2019s creating a cohesive environment where you\u2019re not replacing all your trips with escooters, which seems kind of ridiculous \u2014 it\u2019s about filling those gaps for first and last-mile trips in general.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Emerging_modes\"><\/span>Emerging modes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The expansion of escooters across US cities has driven an increased emphasis on safety, and firms have stepped up efforts to integrate into cities\u2019 ecosystems, rather than compete with them.<\/p>\n<p>Brian Buccella, Bird\u2019s Senior Vice President of Global Policy and Consumer Products, said: \u201cOur innovations are finally starting to make it to the market \u2014 things like our advanced GPS systems that allow sidewalk detection and the implementation of some of the parking solutions that cities are looking for.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think we\u2019re finally at the point where we can provide these solutions to cities and build that framework for years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Establishing this framework requires collaboration between the public and private sectors.<\/p>\n<p>Arnaud Legrand, CEO, RATP Dev USA, said: \u201cThere\u2019s no one solution, no silver bullet that can solve all problems.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s always a combination of different solutions and technologies \u2014 things that can address the different problems that cities face to create integrated modes of mobility that are expected from users.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Incorporating safety technologies like light detection and ranging (lidar) has allowed cities to \u201csee\u201d the world in 3D, providing machines and computers with an accurate representation of the surveyed environment.<\/p>\n<p>Jon Barad, Vice President of Corporate Development at Velodyne Lidar, said: \u201cOne of the reasons lidar is interesting is that it can be used in all lighting conditions, and it protects people\u2019s privacy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt doesn\u2019t allow for any facial recognition, which is a growing concern among city operators.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Planning_for_the_future\"><\/span>Planning for the future<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In April 2019, Austin,

Plan<\/a><span>\u00a0<\/span>to guide transport planning and implementation across the city over 20 years.<\/p>\n<p>At the plan\u2019s heart was a focus on shifting how residents commute \u2014 moving away from the car to more sustainable and active modes of transport.<\/p>\n<p>By delivering a coordinated approach among municipal departments and regional partners, the city wants to integrate all transportation modes so they complement, not compete with, each other.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCities need to look at how we can create a level of commonality among large esoteric topics like electrification,\u201d said, Jason JonMichael, Assistant Director of Transportation, City of Austin.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIts important to be able to share with others, and learn from others what challenges they\u2019re facing and what their perspectives are, whether this is around infrastructure, policy or community.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAustin is seeing a level of growth that it\u2019s never seen before \u2014 during the pandemic the number of people moving to the city increased from 65 people a day to 185 people a day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Similar growth is happening in Miami, which has forced the wider city region to rethink how this expansion can be managed sustainably.<\/p>\n<p>Carlos Cruz-Casas, Assistant Director, Department of Transportation and Public Works, Miami-Dade County said: \u201cWe\u2019re building a city of the future \u2014 we have a lot of infrastructure initiatives, such as improving bike safety and infrastructure, and trying to implement data policies to ensure we can maximize the benefits from this.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are a lot of moving parts, the dynamics of commuting is changing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRight now, public-private partnerships have really gathered a lot of steam in Miami, such as the<span>\u00a0<\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"
