Abstract

This project was completed as part of a partnership between the City of Edina and the University of Minnesota’s Resilient Communities Project (http://www.rcp.umn.edu). The City of Edina is committed to providing clean, abundant, equitable, and accessible transportation options to all who live, work, and travel through the community. Edina’s newly passed Climate Action Plan includes goals to reduce community-wide vehicle miles traveled by 7% by 2030, and increase battery electric vehicle utilization to 25% of community-wide rolling stock. The City is also committed to prioritizing low-income household transportation opportunities. A team of graduate RCP Scholars collaborated with Edina project lead Grace Hancock to develop and administer an online resident survey to understand whether, how, and by whom an electric car-sharing service might be used in a suburban environment such as Edina. The students’ final report is available.
