Making Room for E-devices: Policy, Practice & Campus Mobility

Over here in ACT Higher Ed land, we’re still charged up about e-bikes and e-scooters on campus. Maybe you also find yourself asking: “how do we regulate these little beasties? What does good policy look like? How do I get my partners on board?” And then after that, “what does my program look like?” Luckily we’ve got a few pioneering universities on the line to provide some answers, direction, and lessons learned.

Having recently finalized the University of Utah’s e-device policy, Solomon Brumbaugh, Senior Manager of TDM, will share lessons learned around getting stakeholders on board and navigating the many considerations (and opinions!) that come with e-bikes and e-scooters. At Boston University, Carl Larson has built an enviable campus-wide bicycle and scooter registration program that helps address safety concerns around e-devices and batteries. Learn his secrets.

David Reed, Founder and Principal of SustainMobility, has worked on bike programs at universities across the country. He’ll share examples from university projects and help bridge the gap between policy on a page and effective bike programs and infrastructure.

Hosted by the ACT Higher Education Council, event registration is free and open to all. As always, bring your questions for our panelists.
