Conceptualising Micromobility: The Multi-Dimensional and Socio-Technical Perspective

open access: green, 2023
Micromobility has gained attention from policymakers, industry stakeholders, and academia; however, a comprehensive conceptualization of micromobility is still missing. Existing definitions are largely vehicle-centric: either listing modes or detailing vehicle characteristics. This paper addresses this gap by developing a ‘beyond vehicles&
