#10 How can we create equitable shared mobility in North America?
In the latest episode of Steer's Voices of the Industry podcast series, Alia Verloes, Steer's Lead for the New Mobility Market in North America, talks to three bike share and mobility equity leaders: Laura Mallonee, Director of Programs and Membership at the North American Bikeshare & Scootershare Association (NABSA); Adriel Thornton, Executive Director of MoGo Detroit Bike Share; and Waffiyyah Murray, Better Bike Share Partnership Program Manager at the City of Philadelphia.
The conversation explores how bike share programs are becoming more inclusive and equitable. Our guests share their thoughts on how to embed equity into every part of bike share systems and how programs in cities like Detroit and Philadelphia are engaging the community, making bikes more accessible through adaptive bikes and driving social change.
An essential listen for those in transportation, urban mobility, and community engagement, this episode offers practical examples and strategies to help bike share programs serve as a catalyst for social equity and urban innovation.
Key takeaways
* Equity in all parts of the program: Find out how the most impactful bike share programs weave equity into all components rather than treating it as a standalone initiative, ensuring greater access for all communities.
* Expanding accessibility with adaptive & e-bikes: Learn about electrifying bike share fleets and introducing adaptive bikes so micromobility is accessible to people of all abilities and making inclusivity the core of transportation.
* Community led approaches to engagement: Hear about community outreach strategies and the value of long-term partnerships with local communities to build programs that respond to their needs and priorities.
