In this course, we explore how micromobility fits into the overall urban mobility landscape, what the opportunities and challenges are and how policies and operations could work together. The final module will look at the emerging trends that will influence the future of micromobility.

An interesting overview of various aspects of micromobility

I had some issues displaying the content correctly on my laptop, but otherwise the content is clear and accessible. some of the video presentation might have been smoother if the speaker had taken a second take.
