Micro Mobility’s Growing Pains

July 2023 Over the last few years, micro mobility has gone through ups and downs. During the pandemic, cities grew their bike lane infrastructures, and people embraced micro mobility for recreation and virus-free commuting modes. Post-pandemic, as commuting to work returned, urban area citizens have started to lose patience with micro-mobility and its crowding out – and in some cases endangering…

July 25, 2023 By Brian Hews Hallelujah. A California lawmaker has introduced a bill that would make it illegal for kids under twelve to ride e-bikes. It also would require e-bikers who do not have driver’s licenses to take an online test and have state-issued identification. The legislation, AB 530, is sponsored by Assemblymember Tasha Boerner.  The move is in response to many young electric…

Folks who are new to motorcycling, they imagine motorcycles as being broken into these discrete groups. It's all poppycock, engineered by the Man to make you buy a bigger bike than you think you need.

The way you likely think: you've got your mopeds, on the bottom end, which have wheezy little two-strokes and are exclusively for French people to transport baguettes with, a noble cause if ever I've heard one. Then you've got your scooters, which are halfway between mopeds and motorcycles. You might use a Honda Spree to get to the next town in a pinch, or a Vespa to hold a trip to Home Depot. Things start to get serious as you go into small motorcycles, then sportbikes, cruisers, all those other bigger categories.

What you actually need is any kind of two-wheeled motorized transportation. It's guaranteed to be better than walking, which leading scientists have identified as "pretty slow." All across this great country, the authorities are forgetting to legislate "e-bikes," which are effectively mopeds with a laptop battery strapped to them. It's only a matter of time before they forget that anything smaller than a Hummer H2 exists, at which point it will make a lot of sense to buy a high-mileage Lambretta and drive it in the bike lane, just like they do in Europe.

I'd say run out right now and buy a scooter or two, but just to be on the safe side, let me know about it first. After all, you've just now been awoken to the true potential of shitbox small-displacement transportation and can't be trusted to navigate an untrustworthy Craigslist seller who thinks "hosing off the blood" is the same thing as a full soup-to-nuts restoration. In fact, just let me buy it instead, and there's no reason for you to worry at all. You can walk for a few more weeks until the right deal comes along, right?

America’s payment system is transforming as methods of transacting digitally grow. Digital transactions offer the opportunity to move money faster, cheaper, and more conveniently for customers and businesses. Digital transactions can also unlock new methods for businesses to operate; the online economy is only possible because of online payments.

Our current payment system has solved one set of challenges to unlock the new economy, but the system causes significant problems for others. The current system has a cost structure that is expensive for digital micro-payments, which are small dollar payments. Furthermore, digital payments require accessing digital currency which is easy for the wealthy but can be expensive for those with less income. Finally, digital payment acceptance is fragmented, cumbersome, and slow, creating delays.

These problems form a perfect storm when it comes to transit agencies. Public transit has a large share of low-dollar, high-volume payments. Transit agencies face unique challenges in adapting their fare payment systems to best meet the needs of riders while simultaneously solving concerns regarding user ease, speed, interoperability, and costs. Public transit is generally funded by a combination of user fees and subsidies by multiple levels of government. Federal, state, and local governments have all embraced public transit to serve multiple goals of providing basic mobility, supporting equity, catalyzing economic growth, and creating a more sustainable transportation system. The federal government’s recent infrastructure legislation is a historic investment in transit that provides transit agencies a unique opportunity to improve payment collection systems. To achieve this, payment systems have to become more efficient and effective for low-dollar, high-volume transactions, a key characteristic of transit fare payments.

Enhancing payment efficiency for low-dollar, high-volume payments offers benefits beyond public transit as America’s infrastructure and mobility methods rapidly evolve. Electric vehicle charging, e-bikes, scooters, tolls, and even traditional parking meters have moved into digital payments, which, similar to transit, often result in low-dollar, high-volume transactions. Transportation technology is rapidly evolving in a direction that involves greater use of micro-payments which exposes many problems in America’s payment system.

A payment is comprised of two parts: the transfer of money and the information necessary to conduct that transfer (e.g., who is paying whom, how much, from where, and when). While the information necessary for a payment often goes through non-bank firms, the settlement of money is currently bank-centric with most funds flowing through financial institutions. Non-bank companies, including technology firms providing card systems, messaging firms providing information services, and processing firms, have played critical roles in managing the flow of information and the methods in which payments are transacted, although increasingly, they are also participating in the flow of funds.

This paper lays out the challenges inherent in scaling up open payments in the public transportation context and begins to outline potential paths for solutions. It begins with an overview of the current landscape of transit payments, followed by a discussion of existing and emerging payment systems, including how those systems currently operate, the costs of the systems, and who bears those costs. It then  considers the specific issues involved in moving toward open payments from the perspective of public transit agencies. It concludes with a potential path for solutions.

1-2 Blog: Final Project Review

Ford's e-bike proposal involves many factors to consider. Our favorite things about this organization are the price point, the target market, and the organizational objectives. Among Ford's mission statements is "Help build a better world, where every person can live as they wish. The mission statement of Mergent 2022 is to create a world with fewer obstacles and limits, where people can pursue their dreams and build a better life. Using power assist, the e-bike helps you to go farther, faster, and easier while helping build a better world.

Legislation seems to be focusing on combating climate change and promoting eco-friendly vehicles. A portion of the ticket proceeds can now be collected for reporting vehicles in the bike lane with photographs (Hurler, 2022). It is this congestion that makes e-bikes and other electric powered vehicles like skateboards the most convenient means of transportation. In the coming years, gas prices are likely to rise across the globe, making these bikes more viable.

As part of my marketing strategy, I advertise on blogs, Youtube ads, YouTube sponsorships, influencers, and podcasters who are influential with my target market. Statistics Consumer Insights, 2022) targets highly motivated, highly income-earning, and urban consumers between 30-39 years old. However, we must oversee the ads, especially with influencers, to prevent them from misrepresenting the product without our knowledge and landing us in legal trouble. Through surveys, we also intend to find out what our target market values in e-bikes, so we can include this information in our product. Ford's involvement should be redacted so we don't bias the results in any way. One of the most important questions is what people from different demographics are willing to pay for a product like this.

Reaching interested consumers is the most frustrating limitation. Consumers are hard to find because the market is so small. We can reach a wide range of fitness enthusiasts, willing to buy a life-changing fitness product by using Youtubers, podcasters, and bloggers. In order to reach the small US market interested in e-bikes, we need to find more creative ways of getting their attention.

blog #5

Cincinnati has begun to make a shift in its accessibility to public transportation. However, the city still has different aspects that they could improve upon. Cincinnati already has a street car system, but it could be expanded into a more accessible route throughout the greater city area. Other ways Cincinnati could improve transportation are through bike-shares and using a subway system. In New York, the subway system is still popular and allows for city commuters to use the subway instead of driving. If Cincinnati wanted to make the city more pedestrian-friendly, they could take examples from other cities around the world that have city centers where there are no cars. This allows for more safety for those walking and riding bikes. 

Cincinnati could benefit from increasing bike-share across the community. The human body is born to move. It is so important for humans to be active. One way to promote this is through the design of urban areas. Building cities that are less car-centric and that focus more on the pedestrian can have a large impact on the health and lives of people who live there. Car-dominant cities are not only bad for the environment but are also a waste of space. When a person drives alone, their car occupies a 300 times larger space than foot and bicycle traffic. While walking is a great way to get around a city, it isn’t always possible, especially somewhere like Cincinnati where there are lots of hills and different places that may be too far to walk to. This is why increasing the use of bike share in Cincinnati would be very beneficial. It keeps people active, but is faster than walking and easier for people to go longer distances. However, Cincinnati should not just add more bike-share stops. First, there is a need for more bike-friendly infrastructure. Currently, there are only 2 protected bike lanes in cincinnati. Building more bike lanes would help make it easier for people to bike around the city and would be safer. There should be E-bikes (or Me-bikes) to help people go longer distances. Cincinnati could also take inspiration from Copenhagen’s cycle Superhighway and create and above ground bike path throughout part of the city. This would encourage people to bike more. Currently, there are only 63 stations of Red Bikes throughout Cincinnati. This is a good start but is not nearly enough. There should be more bike share stations throughout Cincinnati especially downtown. They should be strategically placed near office buildings and public spaces to allow for people to bike to work and encourage people to spend time in public spaces. 

https://www.inquirer.com/transportation/protected-bike-lanes-philadelphia-pennsylvania-legislation-20220603.html

Protected bike lanes like the one pictured above help people to feel safer and encourage more people to use bike-share. 

One area in which Cincinnati could improve transportation infrastructure is pedestrian paths. There is a desire for walkability that is proven by the surplus of students who use the car free zone in Burnett Woods to access University of Cincinnati. These walking paths should extend beyond college students and parks as well. It has been proven that walking infrastructure unproportionately benefits lower income residents so to make Cincinnati more equitable, pathways are needed. Converting more streets in the more dense area of the city like OTR or downtown would make Cincinnati much more walkable. In addition, I75 is a major barrier for pedestrians. Dead end streets in West End could be continued as a pedestrian bridge over the highway. The same logic can be applied to neighborhoods like Camp Washington, both for I75 and the railroad yard as well. Plum Street in Downtown Cincinnati is another location that a pedestrian bridge could be added, this time over I71, connecting it with paycor stadium. Many of these communities were very interconnected before highway construction and pedestrian walkability is the first step toward connecting those communities again.

Cincinnati can also benefit from adding more routes to the streetcar that already runs throughout some parts of the city. The Connector is the name of the streetcar that runs throughout some areas of Cincinnati. This streetcar is a great resource for people in Cincinnati because it’s easily accessible with 18 stations throughout the route. The Connector is also free for whoever needs it. The current route of the Connector is a 3.6 mile loop that connects a lot of popular destinations. Expanding the Connector to areas like the University of Cincinnati could be very beneficial for a few reasons. The Connector could help transport UC students to places like UC Health, The Christ Hospital, or to the many other businesses throughout Cincinnati. Extending the route of the Connector also improves pedestrian safety, which is extremely important around the Uptown area of Cincinnati. 

https://www.fox19.com/2023/06/21/cincinnati-could-add-second-streetcar-loop-connecting-uptown-neighborhoods/ 

Nearly one hundred years ago the city of Cincinnati indefinitely halted the development of a planned subway system that could’ve changed the course of Cincinnati’s history in the 20th century and beyond. In the first half of the century, Cincinnati was one of the largest and fastest growing cities in the nation. A city of its size needed expanded public transit as congestion was choking the city streets. Racial prejudice, financial woes, and the country’s entrance into the First World War all contributed to the decline and eventual cancellation of the project. With miles of tunnels already built beneath the city and a renewed interest in expansion within Cincinnati, reigniting the subway project could be revolutionary to the city. Following the original planned route, it could easily connect downtown with the surrounding neighborhoods and towns and enable accessible rapid transit without the use of a personal automobile. Combining the subway system with a larger regional rail network that connected the more distant suburbs and cities would only breed more intercity travel and serve to alleviate congestion in the same manner as was theorized a century ago. If Cincinnati invested in rail transportation as its future, it could truly be a leader in the nation. 

https://drc.libraries.uc.edu/handle/2374.UC/702759/story.html

Another form of transport that would greatly benefit Cincinnati is a regional high speed rail system. It’s no secret that interstates 71 & 75 aren’t good for the city from a noise, environmental, or socioeconomic standpoint as it is difficult for those without cars to navigate in and out of the city. However, with no real mass-transit alternative, they are the only real connection to other population centers. High speed rail provides a promising alternative to this as it would allow for much more efficient, denser travel from Cincinnati to other cities in the area. Additionally, high speed rail provides an improved passenger experience with more optimal locations within cities, more seamless boarding, and a more spacious interior compared to something like regional flying. There has been some promising development on this front in recent years. Amtrak has recently announced a planned route expansion in Ohio, focused mainly on the Cincinnati, Columbus, Cleveland corridor with branch lines to other cities as well. The success of this expansion could have untold benefits for the transport Network of Cincinnati.

The legislation would give city lawmakers “home rule” to lower the speed limit on most streets from 25 to 20 miles per hour.

In an exclusive interview with Gothamist on Wednesday, Heastie explained why he did not introduce the bill for a vote, outraging its supporters. Some assemblymembers representing parts of the city didn’t want the bill to pass because they were concerned about other traffic policies, Heastie said.

“They'd like to see more enforcement, not only of reckless drivers, but also of the e-bikes. That got raised in the conference,” Heastie said. “Some members are saying they'd like more coordination when they make requests for speed bumps and other traffic mitigation. They just would like to be more involved and included in discussions that (the Department of Transportation) is doing in their districts.”

2. Opposition House Leader Todd Stone has introduced a private member’s bill to ban foreign interference in BC politics.

The Control of Foreign Funding and Electoral Influence Act will prohibit foreign-funded individuals and organizations from making false or misleading communications for any purpose related to an election. It will also ban contributions from any foreign person, government, or political organization for any purpose related to an election, and prohibit any individual or organization from collaborating with or accepting funds from foreign entities to influence an election.

3. British Columbia is offering mean-tested rebates on the purchase of eligible new e-bikes. The rebate program will be administered by the Scrap-It Society.

4. Former NDP cabinet minister Harry Lali has joined BCUnited. (In local parlance this transfers his vote from the Dippers to the Grits.)

5. Former governor-general and current special rapporteur David Johnston has released his first report into Chinese electoral interference.

Overall, the report finds no evidence of the Canadian government intentionally ignoring warnings and reports and concludes that a full public inquiry is not necessary.

You can find the report here.

6. The Johnston report identifies significant problems in getting intelligence briefings through to decision-makers in government.

Johnston found intelligence suggesting Beijing was targeting Conservative MP Michael Chong, another MP, and their extended families in China. In May 2021, CSIS sent an “issues management note” about this threat to then-public safety minister Bill Blair and his chief of staff. But neither of them received that note. It turns out it was sent through a “Top Secret Network email” and neither the minister nor his most senior aide had access to that.

6. Jagmeet Singh, the leader of the NDP, has expressed disappointment in the report and said that he will press for a full public inquiry.

7. Conservative leader, Pierre Pollievre, is still claiming that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau might be “complicit” in Chinese election interference.

8. The former Conservative leader, Erin O'Toole, has also expressed disappointment in the Johnston report.
