The introduced bill would add shared micromobility projects, including bikesharing or shared-scooter systems, to 23 U.S.C. 133, 23 U.S.C. 175, and 49 U.S.C. 6702 eligibility language.
Assessments
Hoyle introduced H.R. 8719, the Shared Micromobility Investment Act, in the 119th Congress to add shared micromobility projects to the BUILD/local-regional project assistance, Surface Transportation Block Grant, and Carbon Reduction eligibility language. That materially advances the promised policy and warrants an effort badge. However, the bill is still only introduced/referred to the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee as of the available official record, so the promised codification has not yet been enacted or otherwise delivered.
