AC § 19-159.7

a. Definition. For purposes of this section, the term “micromobility share program” means a program for the provision of devices for personal transportation for shared use within the city of New York under a contract with an operator that permits payment for the use of such devices, including but not limited to bike share, as that term is defined in section 19-193, or any similar program for the shared use of electric scooters, as that term is defined in section 114-e of the vehicle and traffic law. b. Beginning no later than February 1, 2025, the department shall make available on a website owned and operated by the department, and update as feasible when data becomes available, a searchable map of every bicycle lane in the city. Such map shall include: 1. A notation identifying each street with a bicycle lane that has an active permit for street construction, maintenance, or repair that may obstruct such bicycle lane, in whole or in part, for a period of 1 day or longer; 2. The location of every temporary bicycle lane maintained pursuant to section 19-159.3; 3.
