More federal grants for micromobility

This bill would add shared micromobility projects to three existing federal transportation grant programs. That means bikeshare and shared-scooter systems would be an eligible use of Surface Transportation Block Grant, Carbon Reduction, and Local and Regional Project Assistance funds. State and local governments, transit agencies, planning groups, and private operators would be able to apply for those funds for such projects. The bill would not create new money and projects would still need to meet each program's rules. The change would take effect upon enactment.
