The North American Bikeshare and Scootershare Association (NABSA) has released their sixth annual report on shared micromobility usage in North America, "Shared Micromobility State of the Industry Report". The report shows that the rate of shared micromobility use is steadily rising, with the total number of trips in 2024 increasing 31% from 2023. This constitutes over 225 million trips in 2024 — a record-breaking number of trips.
“It’s amazing, but not surprising, to see how shared micromobility continues to grow and grow” said NABSA Executive Director Sam Herr. “It is so clearly providing meaningful service to get people where they need to go, and not just in big cities. Smaller and mid-sized cities, rural and suburban communities, are all implementing shared micromobility to provide mobility options, improve public transportation, and create community vibrancy.”
