Driving modal shift in cities with mobility data

28 September 2023

Many cities worldwide are making strides in improving their public transport systems, from building new infrastructure to introducing new bus lines and increasing service frequency. However, despite these efforts, challenges such as high pollution levels and traffic congestion persist.

He outlines a three-stage approach, with an example from a district in Germany, and shares his best practices for success.
