Shared mobility is emerging as a hybrid of private and public transport.
It encompasses systems that overcome mobility issues, especially for large and populous cities, as a step towards sustainability - including carsharing, bicycle sharing, ridesharing, ride hailing, carpooling and microtransit systems.
The concept has gained momentum, and players like Uber and lyft are continuously evolving their products. New operational models, novel optimization algorithms and smart technologies are emerging constantly.
Shared mobility systems have been in operation in many cities of the world for some time, bringing benefits including transport accessibility, decreased personal vehicle ownership, reduction in vehicle travel and reduced emissions. It is expected that the shared mobility market will continue to grow and by 2026 the global market will reach USD240 billion. With the evolution of digital technologies, policies and legislation relating to shared mobility are of increasing importance as are new technological developments.
This special issue looks at recent advances in shared mobility and brings together engineers, researchers and practitioners interested in advances in the field including new mobility models, optimization algorithms, communication technology, intelligent transport systems, big data and IoT.
