And you live in all of Atlanta I take it? Would you even be able to notice a 10% increase?
Atlanta is huge. It can take two hours at highway speeds to get through it. Most routes do not allow for scooters. I think it's obvious that banning scooters cannot have had impact on most commute routes. This conclusion needs to be more specific about commute routes impacted to help folks learn from the data.
I think they also need to discuss other projects which impacted commute times at the time. For example, major work on the GA400/I285 intersection began at that time. Changes to I75 and its dedicated pay lanes was underway. Those two routes are used by huge numbers of commuters every day and the impact was huge.
The micromobility ban was implemented in the city of Atlanta on 9 August 2019. We use high-resolution data from 25 June 2019 to 22 September 2019 from Uber Movement to measure changes in evening travel times between 7:00 p.m. and midnight
The data was very specific to evenings in certain areas.
