This chapter examines the parking infrastructure for shared micromobility systems, dockless or docked based, with a particular emphasis on the strategic planning necessary for parking area design and site selection. The literature underscores the critical role that well-designed parking infrastructure plays in enhancing the use and efficiency of micromobility options within urban environments. Dockless systems, while offering flexibility, require careful management to prevent irregular parking and ensure pedestrian safety. In contrast, docked systems, where shared micromobility vehicles must be rented and returned at specific stations, provide more organized distribution and enhanced security, though at the cost of reduced flexibility and higher installation expenses. Recent studies have explored various optimization methods to identify the most suitable locations for micromobility parking facilities. These studies often employ advanced multi-criteria decision-making frameworks and data-driven models that account for key variables, including population density, land use patterns, and the proximity of public transportation networks. The integration of these factors aims to seamlessly incorporate micromobility systems into the urban transportation system, thereby enhancing accessibility and operational efficiency. The chapter concludes by highlighting the essential factors influencing the selection of parking locations for shared micromobility vehicles, emphasizing the importance of safety, accessibility, and sustainability. These considerations are crucial to ensuring that shared micromobility systems contribute positively to urban mobility and enhance the quality of life for residents.
