Micromobility Facility Design Guide

There has been widespread growth of micromobility vehicles in both large cities and small towns. However, these micromobility vehicles use existing right-of-way and transportation infrastructure that was not designed with them in mind. As a direct result of the lack of appropriate guidance on how to design roadways to accommodate the growth in micromobility vehicle use, the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Pedestrian and Bicycle Standing Committee developed the Micromobility Facility Design Guide Informational Report, which summarizes potential design challenges micromobility users experience as they travel on typical roadways. The report also identifies design solutions with real-world examples to accommodate micromobility. We invite you to explore the full report and continue the conversation with us below.

A Design Win for Seattle Sidewalks

A Design Win for Seattle Sidewalks

Micromobility is growing, but when scooters and bikes have nowhere obvious to park, sidewalks suffer. Seattle tackled this with quick-build corrals, using simple outlines to guide parking right away, then upgrading to durable markings and in-street designs. See how we helped screen sites, refine locations in the field, and scale for daily use and major events.
