Smart Infrastructure for Shared Mobility

摘要

Micromobility has emerged as a green mode of transport, which offers an innovative way to handle persistent traffic planning problems such as the last-mile connections with public transit. The integration of micromobility in urban infrastructure is a key challenge faced by public authorities, policy and urban planners. In this paper we present the results of a face-to-face street travel survey among e-scooter users in Paris about infrastructure-related issues. The great majority of the respondents are not owners of e-scooters, but they use the free-floating electric scooters (FFES), which is an increasingly popular shared mobility scheme. The responses have been analyzed statistically and crosstabulations have been produced. They demonstrate that the users perceive riding on the cycle lane, the sidewalk (excluding cycle lane) and the sidewalk on a cycle lane as safe. On the contrary, they perceive as less safe driving the e-scooters on the cycle lane, the shared lane for bus/taxi/bicycle and the mixed traffic lane. Nonetheless, it is found that the users drive faster at the types of road infrastructure, which they consider less safe.
