View the Agenda: 2019 NATIONAL BIKE SUMMIT

Dockless shared transportation is growing across the country and campuses and home cities are working to determine how these new options fit into their existing transportation melange. This panel will present the experiences of cycling programmers from Bicycle Friendly Universities whose campuses have had a range of responses to the new wave of shared transportation. Additionally, the panel will be joined by transportation & planning staff from home city municipalities for perspective on the benefits of coordination when developing programming.

Panelists will provide background on how their schools are ensuring the safety of their populations and preserving extant cycling modes while meeting demand for innovative and effective last mile solutions. Presentations will cover identifying and coordinating with relevant campus and community stakeholders, developing safety policies, consideration of traditional cycling commuters, working with innovative service providers and implementing effective agreements with dockless sharing companies. After brief presentations, the panelists will take questions and lead a discussion with attendees on how their experiences can translate to successful programs at other schools.
