<br />8 <br /> <br />Overall, survey-takers who responded to the topic of speed <br />moderation support moderating the speed of scooters on <br />the paths. The most commonly cited reason why are safety <br />and the potential for speed reduction to mitigate collisions <br />between path users and thus reduce the possibility of <br />injuries occurring. Additionally, multiple respondents <br />suggested potential shared-use path speed limits, which can <br />be found in Table 2. Of those who do not support <br />moderating the scooter speed, the dominant argument is <br />that bicycles can exceed 15mph but do not have their speed <br />moderated.1 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Open Comments <br />The final survey question asked respondents to share any remaining thoughts, ideas, and concerns they <br />had regarding an e-scooter pilot in Eugene. Comments provided covered a wide range of topics, from <br />reasons why respondents either support or do not support a scooter program, to suggestions for <br />scooter distribution, to recommendations for how to incentivize desired scooter-riding behavior. Table 3 <br />provides a summary of open comment topics. A more detailed, synthesized list of all comments is <br />provided in Appendix D. <br />Table 3: Common Themes from Open Comments <br />Do Not Support Safety Concerns: Safety <br />Pilot Because: Parking Parking <br /> Mobility and Access Mobility and Access <br /> Sustainability Sustainability <br /> Other Cities' Experience Equity <br /> They Are Unnecessary Enforcement <br /> Money Could Be Better Spent Abuse <br />Recommendations: General Where Scooters In the Right of Way <br /> Infrastructure Improvements Should Operate: Distribution <br /> Scooter Parking Where to Focus Funding (Instead of Scooters) <br /> Scooter Enforcement Double-Standard (Scooters vs. Automobiles) <br />Reasons to Support Pilot <br /> <br />1 Oregon state law regulates the speed of electric-assisted bicycles to 20mph. <br />Table 2: Suggestions from Survey <br />Respondents for Shared-Use Path <br />Scooter Speeds <br />February 26, 2020, Work Session – Item 2
