Smart mobility

Smart mobility refers to many modes of transport.^[1][2][3][4]

Some smart mobility services include:^[5]

• public transport (with real-time timetabling and route optimization, seamless travel and digital ticketing)
• Carsharing
• Mobility as a service (MaaS)
• Mobility on Demand (MOD)^[6]
• autonomous transport systems
• smart mobility services in freight and logistics
• drones and low-altitude aerial mobility

Mobility-as-a-Service enables multimodal mobility by providing user-centric information and travel services (navigation, location, booking, payment, ...) hence allowing mobility as a seamless service across all transport modes. Mobility on Demand also don't require ownership of private automobiles and gives convenient access to a range of travel modes while socialising the high initial costs of switching to electric-vehicle based mobility. Integrated mobility on demand services can contribute to modal shift to public transport and also addresses spatial inefficiencies of private transport.^[7] The car also has a small role to play within smart mobility (it is particularly useful in a context which does not require personal ownership of the car, see above). Cars can be made to use intelligent transportation systems.
