Moving forward, what role should dockless mobility play in Austin?

Steve Adler

Mayor

Dockless mobility is a critical component for last mile solutions moving forward. We ought to carefully craft rules base on the experience we are compiling now, and we also need to build the infrastructure in our urban core that allows dockless to thrive.

At the same time, there are legitimate safety concerns and accessibility concerns that have to be addressed in the process of rule-making. We need to get out ahead of these issues or they will overwhelm the technology before it can iterate solutions.
