Shared Mobility Rocks

Did you know private cars stand still over 95% of the time? In cities, a signifi cant
amount of public space is occupied by parking lots and parked cars. In rural areas,
inhabitants have to deal with the impoverishment of public transport and the resulting
car dependency. Shared mobility can be part of the solution for addressing these
challenges! But it’s not always easy to make heads or tails of the shared mobility
universe. Don’t panic. With this book, you’ll learn all the basics of shared mobility –
from the different forms and defi nitions to the impacts and potentials of carsharing,
ridesharing, bikesharing, Mobility as a Service, mobility hubs and more! Detailed
examples of shared mobility projects in cities and rural areas will provide you with
ideas, crucial factors for success and valuable lessons learned.

Together with the mind-blowing SHARE-North team of experts, Friso Metz, senior
consultant shared mobility at Advier (NL) and Rebecca Karbaumer, sustainable
mobility project coordinator for the City of Bremen (DE), have bundled the project
