WTTW-TV News interviewed Department of Urban Planning and Policy Professor Kate Lowe in an online story about what positive environmental impact, if any, an electric scooter initiative like Chicago’s soon-to-launch pilot program may have. Lowe says the environmental benefits may be limited, but an e-scooter pilot program is a good opportunity for the city to evaluate their effectiveness and give residents an additional option for getting around the city. http://bit.ly/2WGSaS6
