Car sharing should contribute to reduced greenhouse gas GHG emissions; however, such schemes include both positive and negative environmental effects, including: (1) reduced CO2e (carbon dioxide equivalent) from substituting private vehicle use for more fuel-efficient car sharing vehicles, (2) increased CO2e as car-less individuals switch from public transit to car sharing vehicles and (3) reduced CO2e due to fewer vehicles. This study examines the impacts of this modal shift on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions using three types of models: a mixed logit model to analyze car sharing service preferences; a binary logit model to analyze whether individuals are willing to forgo vehicle ownership or planned purchases to use car sharing services; and a linear regression to determine how much private vehicle or public transportation use would be replaced by car sharing and the resulting effects on mobility. Total emissions from the current car sharing market equal 1,025,589.36 t CO2e/year.

  • Testing Demand Responsive Shared Transport Services Via Agent-Based Simulations
    TESTING DEMAND RESPONSIVE SHARED TRANSPORT SERVICES VIA AGENT-BASED SIMULATIONS Giuseppe Inturri, Nadia Giuffrida, Matteo Ignaccolo, Michela Le Pira, Alessandro Pluchino, Andrea Rapisarda University of Catania Abstract Demand Responsive Shared Transport (DRST) services take advantage of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), to provide “on demand” transport services booking in real time a ride on a shared vehicle. In this paper, an agent-based model (ABM) is presented to test different the feasibility of different service configurations in a real context. First results show the impact of route choice strategy on the system performance. Keywords: shared mobility, flexible transit, dynamic ride sharing, demand responsive transport, agent-based model Introduction This paper focuses on the potential contribution of innovative Demand Re- sponsive Shared Transport (DRST) services provided by a fleet of vehicles, booked by users via mobile device applications and scheduled in real-time to pick up and drop off passengers in accordance with their needs [1]. The system stands between an expensive conventional exclusive-ride door-to-door service (like a conventional taxi) and a flexible system where a dynamic sharing of trips makes users experiment longer travel distances and times while the vehicles drop off and pick up other pas- sengers (like a conventional transit). From the operator’s point of view, it is important to select the optimal strat- egy to assign vehicles to passengers’ requests, so to perform high load factor and low driven distance (to reduce operation costs), while minimizing the additional time and distances travelers have to experience (to assure the expected level of ser- vice).

  • An Analysis of the Factors Influencing the Sustainable Use Intention Of
    sustainability Article An Analysis of the Factors Influencing the Sustainable Use Intention of Urban Shared Bicycles in China Peng Shao * and Jie Liang School of Management, Xi’an Polytechnic University, Xi’an 710048, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-137-0914-2830 Received: 5 April 2019; Accepted: 6 May 2019; Published: 14 May 2019 Abstract: Bicycle sharing services have played an active role in building a green travel system in China, but this trend has also caused problems, such as users arbitrarily stopping on the roads or the destruction of shared bicycles. Based on data collected by means of a survey that we designed, a regression analysis is used to test the influence of use perception and consumer characteristics on the intention to sustainably use shared bicycles by measuring the intention to: continue using the service, park the bicycles in an orderly manner, and care and protect the bicycles. We find that: (1) perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, consumer innovation, and standardized use behavior have a significantly positive impact on the intention to continue using and park shared bicycles in an orderly manner; (2) perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and consumer innovation also have a significantly positive impact on the intention to care and protect shared bicycles; and, (3) standardized use behavior has no significant impact on the intention to care and protect shared bicycles. Moreover, urban air quality plays a positive regulatory role in the relationship of perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and consumer innovation with the intention to sustainably use the service.

  • Shared Mobility – Where Now, Where Next? Second Report of the Commission on Travel Demand
    Shared mobility – where now, where next? Second report of the Commission on Travel Demand September 2019 Greg Marsden, Jillian Anable, Jonathan Bray, Elaine Seagriff and Nicola Spurling About the Commission on Travel Demand Shared Mobility Inquiry The Commission on Travel Demand is an expert group established as part of our work to explore how to reduce the energy and carbon emissions associated with transport. The Commission’s first report reviewed declining trends in per capita travel across the UK and the reasons for this. The future work programme will focus on other areas of policy which are critical to rapid decarbonisation. This inquiry focuses on shared mobility and the potential to increase the occupancy of vehicles in-use, reduce individual ownership of assets and enhance multi-modal travel. We are using the term ‘shared mobility’ to mean: • Shared ownership: where the use of the vehicle asset is shared across individuals incorporating various models of commercially or peer-to-peer operated ‘car club’s’/ car sharing schemes, fractional car ownership, bike sharing schemes. • Shared at the point of use: Car/ride sharing (or trip sharing) – rides that are actually shared between different individuals or different parties, sometimes paid separately. In the future, this may include ‘robot taxis’ as shared mobility where the vehicle is shared across individuals.

Quintanilha 1 1 Dept. of Transportation Engineering, Polytechnic School, University of São Paulo, Avenida Professor Almeida Prado, Travessa 2, n. 83, São Paulo, Brazil – [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] 2 Dept. of Production Engineering, Polytechnic School, University of São Paulo, Avenida Professor Luciano Gualberto, n. 1380, São Paulo, Brazil - [email protected] Commission VI, WG VI/4 KEY WORDS: Transportation Systems, Spatial Analysis, Carsharing Station Location. ABSTRACT: Sharing mobility systems have become part of a sociodemographic trend that has pushed shared modes from the fringe to the mainstream of the transportation systems. Carsharing is a mode of shared transport, where a service is offered in which several people share the access and use of a set of vehicles. This is a relatively new mode of urban transport, which gives users access for short periods of rental, thus providing the benefits of using private vehicles, while avoiding the inherent property charges of a vehicle. The objective of the article searches for the identification and selection of preferred areas in the São Paulo City (Brazil) to implement a prototype of a carsharing system. The adopted methodology of demand analysis identifies the spatial patterns of the intervening variables of socioeconomic information, transportation and land use, in order to understand the current panorama of the demand for transport in São Paulo.
