Uncharted Territory: Resilience & Recovery in Shared Mobility
summary
Shared mobility faces steep shocks: city transit runs at about 30% ridership, credit‑card data shows scooter spending down nearly 100%, and operators cut fleets, lay off staff and see valuations fall. Beijing shows some rebound — Mobike trips last 20–30% longer — while Seattle suspends bike‑share service (planning a return in weeks). Platform companies shift toward meal and essential‑worker deliveries, partner with agencies for paratransit and vanpools, and explore using tech to supplement transit service rather than replace it.
