Grant number: G17-CMDC-01
Purpose
Evaluate the first year of operation of seven mobility projects funded through Clean Mobility Options Application Window 1 (November 2020 through May 2022) to understand program perception and projects' achievements in increasing accessibility, establishing meaningful community engagement, economic impact, environment, social inclusivity, and equity.
Projects are expanding clean mobility access. Over 110,000 clean transportation trips were delivered to more than 6,000 users in underserved communities.
Projects demonstrate strong equity impact:
More than 70% of riders had no access to a car.
20% would have not made their trip without the service.
Projects experienced operational barriers including insurance challenges and low early ridership.
