The City of Kingston will study the feasibility of mobility options that might include a bike/scooter share, bike library, EV rideshare, and other programs.

In March 2025, the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority awarded funding to the City of Kingston to explore implementing a zero-emission city-wide transportation program for residents and visitors. With robust community engagement, the study will explore clean mobility solutions and determine the ideal program based on the community’s needs.

The City of Kingston has been paired with WXY Studio, a multi-disciplinary agency for the built environment focused on creating equitable, vibrant, and healthy buildings, places, neighborhoods, and systems.

This study will build upon and inform the work of the Department of Health and Wellness, which already supports policy, system, and environmental changes to increase access to active transportation. Specifically, the City of Kingston’s Pedestrian & Bicycle Master Plan. It will also support and incorporate the City’s Energy & Sustainability work. In 2024, the Kingston Common Council passed a resolution allowing electric-assisted bicycles on public lands.

As part of this study, a public survey has launched, which will inform planning for new transportation options in the City of Kingston. Community input is essential at this early stage as the City and partners explore various options, including bike share and scooter share programs, bike libraries, electric shuttles, and programs that support bike and scooter ownership. The survey will be open until May 2, 2025. A Spanish survey is available here.

Under Mayor Noble’s administration, the Kingston Point Rail Trail Phase 1 (Phase 2 is under design) and the Midtown Linear Park have been created, both of which provide off-street paths and connections for walking and biking. The Kingston Greenline is a network of urban trails, complete streets, improved sidewalks, bike lanes, and linear parks in the City of Kingston.
