The ways in which Uber and Lyft are redefining mobility is the focus of a new policy brief series, Uber and Lyft in U.S. Cities: Findings and Recommendations from Carnegie Mellon University Research on Transportation Network Companies (TNCs).

Key Points: 
  • The ways in which Uber and Lyft are redefining mobility is the focus of a new policy brief series, Uber and Lyft in U.S. Cities: Findings and Recommendations from Carnegie Mellon University Research on Transportation Network Companies (TNCs).
  • However, Uber and Lyft affect different kinds of cities differently, and that is important to understanding their impact, explains Michalek.
  • When TNCs entered U.S. cities, car ownership increased in car-dependent and slow-growth cities, and TNCs displaced transit ridership most in cities with high income and fewer children.
  • The costs that Uber and Lyft impose on cities are not clear-cut, either.
