Location-based impact model for mobility measures
This project will review previous studies, conduct interviews, and analyse mobile data to investigate residents' travel habits in three Swedish cities. The aim is to examine how the location in the city influences the effect of commonly used mobility measures that the municipality, property owners and car-sharing companies control
Several studies have shown mobility measures to have positive effects on more fossil-free, transport-efficient, and resource-efficient urban transport systems. However, the scope of the studies and the type of effects they have measured have varied considerably.
This project will study the links between mobility measures, car ownership and travel behavior. The project will review previous studies, conduct interviews, and analyses mobile data to explore residents' travel habits.
The aim is to create a table with quantitative impact measures for how commonly used mobility measures (and combinations of measures) affect car ownership, kilometers driven by car and modal shift, depending on where in the urban area the measure is implemented.
The results will be freely available to researchers, consultants, and civil servants. They will provide empirical support for proposals for appropriate mobility measures based on the specific conditions of the individual project. The case studies cover Stockholm, Gothenburg and Uppsala.
