Trips analysis (2)
Temporal distribution of VNILSSA trips (source: processing of operators' MDS data, city of Montreal, November 2019)
●Two very distinct types of use:
○E-bikes DSUV : home / work(rush hour 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.)
○E-scooter DUSV: more spontaneous movements

●Short trips
(on average: 2.8 km for e-bikes DSUV between1.5 km and 2.3 km for e-scooters DSUV)

Trips analysis (4)
●27% of trips made on the island of Montreal either started or ended at a subway or train station
●Complementarity BIXI/ DSUV (areas less well served by BIXI)

Issues
Geographic equity
●Limited deployment by operators within restrictedperimeters:
○ DSUV bicycles: 10 boroughs served /19 boroughs authorizedby the regulation
○ DSUV e-scooters: 5 partiallyserved districts out of 5 authorized.
Social equity
●Use only via a mobile application
●High cost for utilization

Issues
Cohabitation with pedestrians
●Cohabitation DSUV / pedestrians isdifficult in areas with high pedestrian density (problems related to bothvehicle traffic and parking)
●Programming of certain georeferencing zones by operators(on a case-by-case basis )
Security
● Failure to wear a helmet
● 333 statements of offence wereissued by the SPVM regardingnon-compliance with the HSC (324 related to helmet use)
● No fatal or serious accidentsinvolving a DSUV
2020
Immobilization of DSUV in dedicated areas
● Regulation not respected by operators
○ 20% of the e-scooters wereparked in one of the 410 definedareas
○ Numerous e-scooters parked atstreet furniture and BIXI stations
Failure of Operator Liability
● Problem with user support ● Adjustment required by the City during the season
○ Abolition of the time limit for issuing statements of offence
○ Control of the public domain○ Create a process for issuing
tickets
Issues
● Removing all the dedicated areas in the Appendix A
● End of the e-scooter (the by-law is still going on for the e-bike and other DSUV)
● Tariffs increase (+75$ per vehicle)
● Limitation of 1000 vehicles per operator
● New requirements for data sharing (new real-time data GBFS)
What will be the modifications of the by-law ? (February and March, 2020)
