1 UITP : FROM THE CARSHARING PLATFORM TO THE COMBINED MOBILITY PLATFORM 2005-2009 UITP
UITP COMBINED MOBILITY PLATFORM 2005 : From the European Carsharing Platform to the UITP Carsharing Platform ECS = more successful by joining forces with UITP thus aiming to achieve urban sustainable mobility. UITP believes Carsharing is complementary to Public Transport and that together they promote sustainable mobility 5 2009 : From Carsharing to Combined Mobility Platform Mobility has replaced transport individual and public. Public transport providers offer a broader mix of mobility services through new alliances with new actors such as carsharing, taxis, bicycles, etc..
UITP COMBINED MOBILITY PLATFORM Mission: Convince authorities and operators of the benefits of combined mobility Stimulate interaction among all combined mobility actors. Promote collaboration between all stakeholders to develop a comprehensive mobility offer responding to all the needs of the users and facilitating door-to-door mobility. How: Meetings, Workshops, Publications (Articles, online toolbox, position papers), Advocacy,

WHY COMBINED MOBILITY? Successful cities rely on efficient public transport in combination with shared mobility services
CITY PERSPECTIVE «Public transport is the most efficient in terms of space and capacity» in a double traction light rail vehicle 518 Persons or in 11 UITP
CUSTOMER PERSPECTIVE More complex mobility needs Relationship with the car changes
COMBINED MOBILITY IS THE ANSWER Modern mobility = flexibility + convenience = Door-to-door solution Public transport + Carsharing Taxis and shared taxis Bicycle and bike-sharing Carpooling, ride-sharing On demand transport Park & ride...
COMBINED MOBILITY + EFFICIENT PUBLIC TRANSPORT A real alternative to the private car A key to change citizens travel behaviour
Benefits - Why should public transport engage with combined mobility services? Complement the mobility chain Enlarge your service portfolio Change travel behaviour Meet lifestyle needs of new generations Extend catchment area of public transport Solution for first+last mile issue Give public transport a fresher image
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR GOOD COLLABORATION: Develop a real Combined Mobility policy Stronger together Public transport should play an active role or even take the lead when developing partnerships. Building strong alliances and partnerships is important, their form is secondary and depends on the context. Setting up a department in charge of Combined Mobility Being aware of mutual benefits
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR GOOD COLLABORATION: Formalize the recognition of a Combined Mobility service by the organizing authority Build tomorrow s cities Use new technologies Develop global marketing campaigns Encourage commercial cooperation Opt for and privilege combined mobility services with economic models in which client tariff income reflects, as far as possible, real costs. Quality as the leitmotif

PUBLIC TRANSPORT AND CARSHARING IN BELGIUM Taxistop Facilitator of sharing since 1975 Doing more with less by collaborative consuming All kinds of sharing services: e.g. carpool, eventpool, less mobile services, homesitting, home-exchanging, carsharing
PUBLIC TRANSPORT AND CARSHARING IN BELGIUM History of carsharing in Belgium: 1997: Preliminary investigation by Taxistop 2002: Start MOSES Project May 2002: Test Station in Wallonie September 2002: Real start in Namur May 2003: Brussels September 2004: Flanders

PUBLIC TRANSPORT AND CARSHARING IN BELGIUM Prime Brussels Air : The Brussels Capital region offers a bonus to its residents when they get rid of their private car. One can choose between two plans: 1. one year free subscription cambio carsharing + one year free public transport 2. One year free subscription cambio carsharing + a bike bonus of 505. An example of good collaboration between local authorities, public transport & carsharing provider and a bike organisation. 24
MODAL SHIFT 29% 26% 16% 28% 29% 9% 13% 51% 6% 3% Succesfull cooperation between carsharing and public transport induces a modal shift. Deeper collaboration between different mobility providers should be encouraged.
4 MAAS: MOBILITY AS A SERVICE OR INTEGRATED MOBILITY PLATFORMS Supports and increases the succes of public transport 26 UITP
MOBILITY AS A SERVICE The spotify of transport A traveller uses mobility services offered by one provider, in stead of his own transportation. That provider rassembles different modes of transport which offers the traveller the possibility to choose its mode of transport depending on its destination, time, price and real traffic 27
MOBILITY AS A SERVICE A MaaS provider should consist of the following: Offering a wide range of mobility services such as public transport, ridesharing, bikesharing, carsharing, Reservation and payment of tickets Tripplanning from door to door Realtime data Offering side services such as parking, fuel card, 28
29 MOBILITY AS A SERVICE
MAAS: MOBILITY AS A SERVICE OR INTEGRATED MOBILITY PLATFORMS Challenges for a MSP Cooperation with (all) different modes of transport Means of reservation and payment Complemantarity of different existing systems Rassembling and protecting all (real-time) data Creating a user friendly device Convincing the individual Conving public administration & politics to create a preferential (fiscal) environment 30
MAAS EXAMPLE BELGIUM Olympus App Lease car-riders are given access to the app The Olympus app allows them to buy public transport tickets, command bikesharing and carsharing, pay underground parking, The company receives only 1 invoice. The rider is encouraged to use/try other modes of transport by giving him/her easy access. 31

5 AUTONOMOUS CARS: INFLUENCE ON COMBINED MOBILITY Challenges the existence and success of public transport 36 UITP
CHALLENGES FOR PUBLIC TRANSPORT Increase of individual comfort Time saving Smart driving Personal preferences Liberty «Natural» choice for the individual MONEY DRIVEN
CHALLENGES FOR PUBLIC TRANSPORT Consequences More purchase of cars Average A.V. drives more Empty cars on the road Spatial spreading of cars Loss of public space For the rich Decrease of use of P.T. Road Safety (1,2 millions deaths on the road a year) Challenge: Convince the individual to make a shift to shared PT AV s
CHALLENGES FOR PUBLIC TRANSPORT What should Public Transport do? Two options: 1. Nothing, but then big corporates will dictate the market 2. Be involved through cooperation with local authorities being the initiator: by integrating the shared AV in the Public Transport System
CHALLENGES FOR PUBLIC TRANSPORT Positive influences if initiated by PT (+ local authorities): Data ownership Less congestion (interconnectivity + road pricing) Less cars More public space
6 MOBILITY 4.0: A COMPREHENSIVE COMBINED MOBILITY IN THE FUTUR 41 UITP
CHALLENGES FOR PUBLIC TRANSPORT How to provide easy & seamless mobility? Offer integrated mobility solutions : Mobility as a Service Mobility Shops Integrated Mobility Platforms by setting up partnerships «If you control the platform you control the behaviour» Use autonomous vehicles (AV) technology to optimise the public transport system and to prepare the citizens on this mode 42 To encourage shared autonomous vehicles tomorrow we need more shared mobility today!
OUTCOME IN 2025 If futur mobility consists of Deep collaboration of different mobility providers through MaaS Integration of autonomonous vehicles in the society via public transport providers The concept of shared mobility (carsharing + ridesharing) is accepted and the individual preferences are set aside = Introduction of driverless shared autonomonous cars with different capacity reinforcing public transport 43
THE FUTURE OF CARS? Decrease of the number of private cars with 80% 44
