Economic regulation and E-scooter networks in the USA☆ [PDF]
Research in Transportation Economics, 2020 This paper looks at the challenges in the economic regulation of stand-up electronic scooters, or “e-scooters”. The e-scooter represents one of several innovative modes that have emerged to cater for transportation needs in urban areas. They provide connectivity linking local origins and destinations, as well as interconnectivity linking urban ...

Potential Analysis of E-Scooters for Commuting Paths [PDF]
World Electric Vehicle Journal, 2021 The mobility needs of society are constantly increasing, resulting in congested urban areas. New mobility concepts such as e-scooters can help to reduce traffic. In particular, commuting paths, which generally remain within a specific distance, are short and manageable via an intermodal travel chain.
