Bridging the First and Last-mile: Designing Multimodal Transportation Experiences

Improving people’s lives with the world’s best transportation is Lyft’s mission for one clear reason — transportation is a critical source of economic and social mobility, but car ownership is failing our communities. In order to further this mission, we’re focused on bridging the first and last-mile gap, while also providing more affordable options that reduce congestion in cities by incorporating public transit and micromobility offerings in concert with our existing rideshare modes. This means designing best-in-class experiences for bikes, scooters and transit, but also designing the seams between ride types to create cohesive and efficient multimodal transportation experiences—i.e. trips that combine multiple types of transportation allowing for greater and more individualized transportation options. With ridesharing, small personal electric vehicles, public transit integration, and a little bit of old-fashioned walking, we can help more people get where they want to go faster, cheaper and safer, while making cities better for everyone.

Join Lyft for an evening of discussion with a world-class panel of designers, product managers and policy-makers on the challenges, opportunities and future vision with respect to designing multimodal transportation experiences.
