The goal of the Shared Fleet Device Program is to provide District residents and visitors a safe, sustainable, and equitable transportation option through permitting of private companies. DDOT works with permitted operators to ensure that Shared Fleet Devices are distributed fairly across all 8 Wards, deployed safely and used properly by riders. Companies without a Shared Fleet Device Permit may not deploy scooters, dockless bikes, or other shared micromobility vehicles for rental in public space.
The Shared Fleet Device Program is separate from Capital Bikeshare, which offers a fleet of publicly owned docked bikes and ebikes.
DDOT currently authorizes the use of public space to companies providing bikes and scooters for short-term rental to all residents and visitors of the District.
