The City of Bridgeport is constantly improving usage of transit and alternative modes of transportation. The Bridgeport Shared Mobility Program (SMP) allows residents over the age of 18 to borrow Lynx & Bird electric scooters from convenient public locations and end their trip anywhere in the city.
Riders must always follow safe operation procedures, including:
- Obey traffic laws, signs, and signals
- Always wear a helmet
- Yield to pedestrians
- Never ride under the influence
The program allows for scooter and bike share providers to operate within the city starting April 19, 2022!
