Invest in and build out the infrastructure for shared mobility as standard components of all transportation projects.

We’ve standardized road signs and lane widths, even pavement quality. We’ve also made building more road access and more parking a default requirement in our development projects for much of the last century - all to benefit private car use. If we want more transportation options to be able to compete with the private car, we should also standardize the components of shared mobility in transportation infrastructure. Components like sidewalks, safe and complete streets, bus stops with bike and scooter racks and charging stations, mobility hubs, and other elements make shared mobility much more available, accessible, reliable, and visible. (We are conscious that land-use decisions shape the viability and feasibility of infrastructure for shared mobility.)

We should:

• Make safe street infrastructure with dedicated space for all users (shared infrastructure/complete streets) the default requirement for local, state, and federal projects and make it harder to avoid building complete streets

• Help small cities, towns, and rural agencies to rapidly test, deploy, and scale shared mobility services

• Standardize the designs and specifications for shared mobility hubs and shared mobility hub components

• Include shared mobility hubs and mobility hub networks in transportation planning and environmental analysis to meet equity and climate goals
