The Public transport and micromobility roles, particularly electric scooters (e-scooters), are increasingly recognised as pivotal for sustainable urban mobility when integrated rather than made to compete. Cognitive mobility behaviour—how individuals select and combine transport modes—was examined through a systematic literature review, traffic counts conducted at peak-hour junctions, and an online survey of residents’ travel habits in Győr, Hungary. It was found that 46% of trips are made by private car, 24% by public transport, 8% by bicycle, 22% on foot, and only 1–3% by e-scooter. E-scooters were observed to be primarily used for short trips and first/last-mile connections, and reductions in car dependence were noted when e-scooters were integrated with public transport. The survey revealed that e-scooters most often replace walking (42%) and public transport (36%), with limited substitution of private car trips (13%). Significant gaps were identified in multimodal integration, infrastructure, legal frameworks, traffic monitoring, and public awareness. It is recommended that multimodal hubs, dedicated e-scooter lanes, improved traffic counting, and clearer regulations be implemented to support modal shift, enhance safety, and maximise environmental benefits.

摘要

The Public transport and micromobility roles, particularly electric scooters (e-scooters), are increasingly recognised as pivotal for sustainable urban mobility when integrated rather than made to compete. Cognitive mobility behaviour—how individuals select and combine transport modes—was examined through a systematic literature review, traffic counts conducted at peak-hour junctions, and an online survey of residents’ travel habits in Győr, Hungary. It was found that 46% of trips are made by private car, 24% by public transport, 8% by bicycle, 22% on foot, and only 1–3% by e-scooter. E-scooters were observed to be primarily used for short trips and first/last-mile connections, and reductions in car dependence were noted when e-scooters were integrated with public transport. The survey revealed that e-scooters most often replace walking (42%) and public transport (36%), with limited substitution of private car trips (13%). Significant gaps were identified in multimodal integration, infrastructure, legal frameworks, traffic monitoring, and public awareness. It is recommended that multimodal hubs, dedicated e-scooter lanes, improved traffic counting, and clearer regulations be implemented to support modal shift, enhance safety, and maximise environmental benefits.
