Patterns of E-Scooter Use in Combination with Public Transport

open access: yesFindings, 2020
Shared e-scooters may complement public transport by offering a solution to the first/last mile problem by easing, or increasing the radius of, access and egress trips.

A Micromobility Buffet: E-Scooters in the Context of Multimodal Spaces and Practices in Greater Manchester

open access: yesActive Travel Studies, 2023
We use the Capabilities Approach to understand the ways in which e-scooters, as transportation resources, provide qualities that contribute to the ability of the transport system to enable people to participate in society. Government-led trials have been

Aspects of E-Scooter Sharing in the Smart City

open access: yesInformatics, 2022
The contemporary urban environment faces such challenges as overloaded traffic, heavy pollution, and social problems, etc. The concept of the “smart city” allows solving some of these issues. One of the opportunities provided by the smart city is the development of micro-mobility and sharing services; contributing to the optimization of transport flows

Social exclusion and transportation in Peachtree City, Georgia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This paper will discuss how, in a small American city, Peachtree City (43km south of Atlanta), the flexibility and relative affordability of electric golf carts, as a viablealternative to the automobile, means that the level at which families and ...

Unique Opportunities of Island States to Transition to a Low-Carbon Mobility System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Small islands developing states (SIDS) contribute minuscule proportions to global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and energy consumption, but are highly exposed to climate change impacts, in particular to extreme weather events and sea-level rise. However,

Do shared e-scooter services cause traffic accidents? Evidence from six European countries

open access: yes, 2022
We estimate the causal effect of shared e-scooter services on traffic accidents by exploiting variation in availability of e-scooter services, induced by the staggered rollout across 93 cities in six countries. Police-reported accidents in the average month increased by around 8.2% after shared e-scooters were introduced.

Price and competition in emerging shared e-scooter markets

open access: yesResearch in Transportation Economics, 2023
The rapid deployment of shared dockless electric scooters (e-scooters) has resulted in attention from the public and regulators. Recurring issues include fleet size and the number of operators in the market. In this paper we study market development in two Norwegian cities and discuss how these experiences point towards future e-scooter regulation and ...

E-Scooter Sharing: Leveraging Open Data for System Design

open access: yes2020 IEEE/ACM 24th International Symposium on Distributed Simulation and Real Time Applications (DS-RT), 2020
With the shift toward a Mobility-as-a-Service paradigm, electric scooter sharing systems are becoming a popular transportation mean in cities. Given their novelty, we lack of consolidated approaches to study and compare different system design options. In this work, we propose a simulation approach that leverages open data to create a demand model that

Exploring the determinants of shared e-scooters acceptance: A case study of Chinese college students

open access: yesJournal of Public Transportation
Shared electric scooters (shared e-scooters) have emerged as a promising green transportation mode, demonstrating significant advantages in mitigating urban environmental pressure and alleviating traffic congestion due to their electric-driven nature and
