Shared micromobility services are reshaping urban transportation, with Veo's 2025 Rider Report revealing major shifts in travel behavior. The report surveyed over 15,000 users across 60 US cities, finding that one-third have delayed or canceled car purchases due to access to shared scooters and bikes. Nearly 75% of riders report reducing car trips, highlighting a significant move away from private vehicle use.

**What Happened**  
Veo's 2025 Rider Report collected data from 15,000 respondents in 60 US markets. It shows that shared micromobility options are becoming mainstream, replacing many car trips. The report indicates a strong trend of riders opting for scooters and bikes instead of personal cars.

**Why It Matters for the AECM Industry**  
This shift impacts urban infrastructure planning, demanding more micromobility-friendly designs such as dedicated lanes and parking. Project managers and engineers must integrate micromobility considerations into transport and streetscape projects. Architects and contractors should anticipate increased demand for micromobility hubs and charging stations in new developments.

**What's Next**  
Cities will likely expand micromobility infrastructure and policies to support this trend. AECM professionals should prepare for new standards and funding opportunities aligned with sustainable urban mobility goals.
