Project overview

• Transition up to 30 app-based food delivery (e.g., Doordash, Grubhub, UberEats) workers from cars to electric bikes (e-bikes) to test the impacts e-bikes have on delivery efficiency, greenhouse gas emission reductions, traffic congestion, safety, and worker income

• Collect data from delivery workers using surveys and delivery route data

Timeline

• Spring 2023 to Spring 2024

Partners

• GRID Alternatives, San Francisco Bicycle Coalition, and Driver’s Seat Cooperative
