Create the institutional foundations and processes that help shared mobility become affordable and economically sustainable.

We need to advance from experimenting with and piloting shared mobility services and move to scale and replicate the projects that work so that more people can have access to mobility options. We need to move from ad hoc, project-level management teams to systemwide governance and planning structures so we can purposely expand shared mobility and provide more transportation options to move everyone.

We should:

• Streamline permitting, regulations, procurement, and contracting for shared mobility services and shared mobility infrastructure

• Use market supports, including subsidies, to buttress privately operated shared mobility services as needed to enable economic sustainability where they are supporting community needs and serving public policy goals

• Expand the capacity of federal, state, regional, and municipal departments and agencies to fund, staff, plan, evaluate, develop infrastructure for, procure, and guide the operations of shared mobility services, including developing effective public-private partnerships.

• Formalize and standardize digital integration between services and between public and private operators based on what data is needed and how it will be used

• Build and sustain internal resources and capacity in agencies to manage shared mobility and mobility information

• Encourage the creation of shared mobility advisory councils that will create goals and roadmaps for integrated networks of clean, shared mobility at the local, regional, and state levels of government

• Encourage shared mobility plans tied to climate and equity goals and include community social costs and benefits
