  • Mobility As a Service: a Review on Recent Development and Future Envision
    Preprints (www.preprints.org) | NOT PEER-REVIEWED | Posted: 6 January 2021 doi:10.20944/preprints202101.0109.v1 Mobility as a Service: A Review on Recent development and future envision Haoning Xi1,2* 1 Research Centre for Integrated Transport Innovation, School of Civil and Environmental Engineering, University of New South Wales (UNSW), Sydney, NSW 2052, Australia. E-mail: [email protected] 2 Data61, CSIRO, Canberra ACT 2601, Australia. E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Mobility as a Service (MaaS) is an innovative transport concept, anticipated to provide travelers with different kinds of travel services, more sustainable than a private car, in a simpler, packaged way. It combines different transport modes to offer a tailored mobility package, like a monthly mobile phone contract. The rapid development of intelligent transportation system and the shared economy has speeded up the development of MaaS in these years. In this paper, we aim at classifying the existing research on MaaS and the characteristics of MaaS into different categories, in order to answer the following questions after reviewing the existing literature: What is MaaS? Who are the main actors in MaaS? How can MaaS be implemented? Why should it be implemented? Where will MaaS end up in this wave of disruption? When we talk about MaaS, what are we focusing on? What is the future leading frequency of MaaS? Finally, based on the existing literature, we envision the leading future of MaaS. INTRODUCTION Mobility as a Service (MaaS) is a very recent mobility concept. It can be thought of as a concept (a new idea for conceiving mobility), a phenomenon (occurring with the emergence of new behaviors and technologies) or as a new transport solution.

  • Mobility As a Service White Paper
    Mobility as a Service White Paper Bringing Mobility as a Service to the United States: Accessibility Opportunities and Challenges The development and deployment of Mobility as a Service (MaaS) systems in Europe has been increasing at a rapid rate over the past few years. However, in the U.S. during the same time frame, MaaS implementation has been limited. While there are no MaaS systems in the U.S., several systems are under development. A few of these are described later in the paper. The definition of, and unique opportunities and challenges associated with MaaS in the U.S. will be explored. The accessibility aspect of MaaS has been discussed in a limited way. While this paper directly addresses the current thinking regarding MaaS accessibility in a later section, accessibility is also mentioned briefly in the background, opportunities and challenges sections. What is Mobility as a Service? According to the MaaS Alliance, “Mobility as a Service (MaaS) puts users, both travelers and goods, at the core of transport services, offering them tailor-made mobility solutions based on their individual needs. This means that, for the first time, easy access to the most appropriate transport mode or service will be included in a bundle of flexible travel service options for end users.”1 Figure 1 illustrates the MaaS ecosystem. There are four objectives of MaaS, as follows 2: 1. Seamless and efficient flow of information, goods, and people both locally and through long distances; 2. Globally scalable door-to-door mobility services without owning a car; 3. A better level of service than the private car; and 4.

  • Mobility As a Service Report
    MOBILITY AS A SERVICE A SUM OF PARTS PRESENT TODAY CONTENTS FOREWORD A LOOK AT FUTURE 4 18 SCENARIOS MOBILITY OF CONCLUSION – PARTS 6 THE FUTURE 22 ARE PRESENT TODAY DISSECTING FOUR KEY SECTORS OF 8 MAAS, HERE TODAY Foreword by William (Billy) Riggs Professor of Planning, Engineering, and Management University of San Francisco The last decade has been a time of unprecedented change in how we move people through cities. The rise of Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) platforms, shared and networked vehicles, and other transportation technologies have changed the way we think about cities, transport, and data. The components of this new mobility environment, the focus of this document, represent an exciting future for us all. Most acutely, new and disruptive transport will result in profound changes in cities. There are implications for jobs, social equity, and the environment. There are opportunities to shape advances in transportation to improve streets and better connect people; to reshape cities and improve the social and physical health of their residents. There are opportunities to reduce collisions and improve access to healthcare for those who need it most—particularly high-cost, high-need individuals at the younger, and older ends of the age spectrum. There is also the potential to connect people to jobs and change the way cities organize space and optimize trips. Yet these opportunities also present challenges. Smarter transportation may not always translate into greater sustainability or equity. There is a risk that leaders from the public and private sector may not move fast enough to respond to these changes and achieve the full benefits of new technology.

    CPB Corporate Partnership Board Mobility as a Service A New Ambition for Public Transport Authorities 184 Roundtable Discussion Paper Yves Crozet Institute of Political Studies Lyon Mobility as a Service A New Ambition for Public Transport Authorities 184 Roundtable Discussion Paper Yves Crozet Institute of Political Studies Lyon The International Transport Forum The International Transport Forum is an intergovernmental organisation with 62 member countries. It acts as a think tank for transport policy and organises the Annual Summit of transport ministers. ITF is the only global body that covers all transport modes. The ITF is politically autonomous and administratively integrated with the OECD. The ITF works for transport policies that improve peoples’ lives. Our mission is to foster a deeper understanding of the role of transport in economic growth, environmental sustainability and social inclusion and to raise the public profile of transport policy. The ITF organises global dialogue for better transport. We act as a platform for discussion and pre- negotiation of policy issues across all transport modes. We analyse trends, share knowledge and promote exchange among transport decision-makers and civil society. The ITF’s Annual Summit is the world’s largest gathering of transport ministers and the leading global platform for dialogue on transport policy.
