Highlights The impact of e-scooter sharing on the usage of bike sharing is explored using Chicago data. The weekly usage of bike sharing in e-scooter sharing operation area declined by 10.2% due to the impact. Usage of bike sharing by members and non-members declined by 4% and 34% respectively. Bike sharing usage during workday peak hours and other times did not change and declined.

    Abstract As a new type of shared micromobility, e-scooter sharing first appeared in the United States and became popular worldwide. Considering e-scooter sharing and bike sharing have similar service attributes, the ridership of bike sharing may be affected by the introduction of e-scooter sharing. To date, studies exploring this impact are limited. In this study, we seek to analyze the impact of e-scooter sharing on the usage of bike sharing from trip data of e-scooter sharing and bike sharing in Chicago for a total of 30 weeks. We rely on a difference-in-differences modeling approach based on the propensity score matching method. We found that the average duration of e-scooter trips is shorter than that of bike trips. The introduction of e-scooter sharing reduced the overall bike sharing usage by 23.4 trips per week per station (10.2%). bike sharing usage of non-members and members decreased by 18.0 (34.1%) and 5.4 (4.0%) trips, and that of male and female members decreased by 3.3 (3.1%) and 2.0 (7.3%) trips, respectively. Furthermore, the volume of short-, medium-, and long-duration trips of bike sharing decreased by 10.9 (7.5%), 5.4 (9.6%), and 3.4 trips (20.5%), respectively. Finally, bike sharing use during non-peak hours decreased but was not affected during peak hours.
