Difficoltà a comprendere la mobilità? Facciamo luce sui dubbi e ci occupiamo delle domande relative alla progettazione di soluzioni di mobilità in linea con i tempi: come pianificare la mobilità con orientamento alla domanda? Qual è l’impatto delle soluzioni digitali sullo sviluppo del trasporto pubblico locale di oggi? Quali sono le menti del settore che pianificano la mobilità? Come la pianificano?

Teniamo traccia di tutte le nostre idee e risposte a queste domande su un blocco appunti digitale. Per voi, per noi, per nuovi spunti stimolanti, per un sistema di trasporto pubblico locale al passo con i tempi, per soluzioni di mobilità intelligenti e fortemente interconnesse.

What is… New Mobility?

What is… New Mobility?

“New Mobility” is often referred to as “smart mobility” and is a collective term for many innovations relating to technology and mobility. These new mobility services combine digitalisation with traditional mobility and use the advantages of the internet. New mobility services include bike sharing, demand-responsive transport, ride hailing and smart parking.

Senior-friendly public transport: What should age-appropriate public transport look like?

Senior-friendly public transport: What should age-appropriate public transport look like?

Europe’s population is ageing. in 2019, more than a fifth (20.3 per cent) of the EU-27 population was at least 65 years old. And the trend is still rising. Demographic change is a challenge for public transport, but it can also be an opportunity for growth with a customised mobility offer for senior citizens. After all, if older people no longer drive, they are increasingly dependent on public transport in order to continue to actively participate in social life.

What is … a Mobility Hub?

What is … a Mobility Hub?

Mobility Hubs, also known as Mobility stations, are publicly accessible locations where various modes of transport and sharing services converge. These can be S-Bahn (suburban train) and subway stations in an urban context, or even a bus stop in the countryside where rental bikes are available or important bus routes intersect. At these stations, people can easily switch from one mode of transport to another. Mobility hubs promote efficient and sustainable mobility by offering various mobility services, otherwise known as Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS). The concept can be expanded from a simple bus stop to large Mobility Hubs, for example, with a combination of on-demand transport, car sharing stations, or e-scooters.

Ridepooling in Transport Planning

Ridepooling in Transport Planning

Demand-responsive transport based on the ridepooling concept is on everyone’s lips and has long been an important pillar of individual, public transport. Data-based transport planning is needed to realise the full potential of on-demand mobility. When transport companies want to start a new on-demand operation, they inevitably face the question of the right ridepooling design and the best balance between the costs and benefits of the flexible offer.
