Techniques are disclosed for systems and methods to provide reduction in connectivity interruptions between vehicle docking stations and a management server for facilitating micro-mobility vehicle sharing services. To maintain communication sessions between the vehicle docking stations and the management server, heartbeat signals are transmitted periodically by each of the vehicle docking stations to the management server. An unavailability of the connection between a vehicle docking station and the management server may be detected based on an interruption to the heartbeat signals. In response to determining the unavailability of the connection, the management server may instruct a vehicle within a predetermined distance of the vehicle docking station to establish a short-range connection with the vehicle docking station and retrieve docking station data from the vehicle docking station.
