First/Last Mile Connections: Transportation Strategies
Lower Merion Township Building and Planning Department

What are first mile and last mile connections?
A first mile connection(FM) is the beginning of an individual trip made primarily by public transportation. The traveler might have driven to the train station at the start, or perhaps they took a local bus or walked.
Similarly, a last mile connection(LM) is the gap the traveler must navigate from public transit to their destination.

Electric Bicycles
What should Lower Merion do?
Based on all of this information, the question now is to decide which methods of micromobility are best for Lower Merion Township to adopt.
Given the demographic of a majority upper-middle class, single-family homes, Lower MErion Township residents are most interested in a trendy, clean and effective way to close the gap between home and the train station. To cut down on traffic and to bring more people outside, my research suggests that the Segway Ninebot model would be the most popular choice.
Lower Merion Township(and all of PA) already accepts Segway technology as EPAMD under the law.
EPAMDs require no registration, and are the easiest mode of micro-mobility.
Devices such as the MiniPro are lighter weight, and possible to carry onto trains.
E-Bikes and/or motor-driven cycles can be locked at stations and offer variability in travel.
