This ongoing research focuses on two streams of research. First, this research examines the regulation of dockless e-scooter and bicycle parking. This research highlights the reality of misparking, perceptions of misparking, and policies to address this problem.
Second, this research project examines the use of ride-hail services, such as Uber and Lyft, by households with lower-incomes.
