In 2023, the availability of ride-share platforms (i.e., Uber and Lyft) has made some early market car-sharing platforms obsolete (i.e., ZipCar and others). Yet, I see in the LEED-ND v4 credit language still only references car-share (and there is no mention of RIDE-share platforms).
Given older car-share platforms are WAY more limited in availability in most cities across the country (i.e., here in Grand Rapids, we do not have any car-share options but have plenty of ride-share options), curious if anyone has been able to use ride-share availability as an alternate compliance pathway for this (and other) credits?

Matthew, there's no formal ACP for ride sharing under the TDM credit, but ride sharing would be a good candidate for an Innovation credit.
