Scooting around the Margins: Testing Scooter Parking Design Pilots
Cities designate space for shared bikes and e-scooters using dedicated parking corrals. Yet best practices for corral design remain unclear, particularly if corral design can influence parking compliance or tidiness. We experimented with parking design pilots in three US cities, finding that vertical signage did not lead to statistically significant increases in the share of scooters and bikes parked within corrals; striped parking stalls demonstrate encouraging, if marginal, effects on tidy parking. The results suggest that minor corral wayfinding elements are unlikely to have much effect on micromobility parking, especially when compared to more forceful interventions like mandatory parking locations.
