Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
A Mobike parked on the 1500 block of Connecticut Avenue
Last week, two dockless bicycle companies pulled out of D.C., complaining of restrictive city regulations.
But competition for cyclists is likely to intensify. In addition to Capital Bikeshare, whose red bikes are parked at docks throughout the city, three dockless bike companies remain in Washington — and ridership is growing.
With dockless scooters added to the mix, it seems like a transportation free-for-all, with local governments scrambling to write new rules after these companies come to town. How welcoming should the Washington region be to these bikes and scooters? Who benefits and who loses from their presence here?
