摘要

The access to or use of goods and services without owning them is a central promise of the sharing economy, a disruptive concept that supports the global transformation towards entering more climate-resilient, sustainable development pathways. Potentially reducing carbon footprints, alleviating urban traffic congestion and pollution, as well as increasing social mobility, shared and digital mobility solutions are gaining increasing popularity in cities around the globe. Moreover, the implementation of shared mobility schemes may not only result in more efficient and competitive urban transport systems, but also contribute to social equity and positively impact the quality of life in cities. We introduce a distinctive integral approach to improve multimodal accessibility in urban areas. By providing real-life evidence of the introduction and uptake of so-called shared and digital mobility hubs the needed transition of current transport systems towards a sustained and climate-friendly regime may be accelerated. These measures will be explored in a set of cases from the Netherlands and Norway that may pave the way for further implementation, upscaling and replication of mobility hubs across Europe.
