Shared Fleet Devices in the District
“Shared Fleet Devices” refers to shared micromobility devices, typically dockless electric bikes, and electric scooters. DDOT permits four companies to operate Shared Fleet Devices in public space: Lime, Lyft, Spin, and Veo. All four of these companies operate shared scooters. Lime, Spin, and Veo also operate shared dockless electric bikes.
Pilot for Shared Motor-Driven Cycles
In August 2019, the District Department of Transportation (DDOT) launched a four-month demonstration pilot for motor-driven cycles, also known as mopeds, as part of the District’s continued commitment to fostering new shared mobility options.
Bike and Scooter Corrals
Over 5 million shared fleet bike and electric scooter trips were taken in 2019. DDOT is installing bike and scooter corrals across the District to support this growing transit option.
Making Shared Fleet Accessible to all Washingtonians
DDOT requires operators to make dockless vehicles accessible to all Washingtonians, regardless of income.
