SHARED MOBILITY SYSTEMS GILBERT LAPORTE, FRED´ ERIC´ MEUNIER, AND ROBERTO WOLFLER CALVO Abstract. Shared mobility systems for bicycles and cars have grown in popularity in recent years and have attracted the attention of the operational research community. Researchers have investigated several problems arising at the strategic, tactical and operational levels. This survey paper classifies the relevant literature under five main headings: station location, fleet dimensioning, station inventory, rebalancing incentives, and vehicle repositioning. It closes with some open research questions. Key words: survey, shared mobility systems, bicycle and car sharing, fleet dimensioning, inventory rebalancing, vehicle repositioning. 1. Introduction The world of transportation has witnessed a mini-revolution in June 2007 with the launch- ing of the V´elib'bicycle sharing system in Paris.

  • Planning for Regional Bike Sharing: Human-Scaled Mobility and Transit Integration in Urban Growth Centres
    Planning for Regional Bike Sharing: Human-scaled Mobility and Transit Integration in Urban Growth Centres by Scott Hays supervised by Laura Taylor A Major Paper submitted to the Faculty of Environmental Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master in Environmental Studies York University, Toronto, Ontario, Canada 2 August 2018 Abstract This paper argues that an integrated approach to bike sharing program implementation can yield considerably higher benefits than bike sharing operations in isolation, and can improve transit systems and urban design alike. This paper draws from literature on the Sustainable Transportation paradigm, New Urbanism and Smart Growth to argue that a transit-integrated regional approach to bike sharing can greatly contribute to a seamless regional transit system, while yielding significant benefits to local urban design and mobility as well. Such an approach can significantly enhance transit’s competitiveness against the automobile, enabling transit-oriented designs of Urban Growth Centres that mitigate autocentric suburban sprawl. Employing this approach to GO Transit’s upcoming Regional Express Rail (RER) and the Urban Growth Centres of the GGH can facilitate the complete communities desired in the Provincial Growth Plan to advance the GGH’s polycentric urban network. The incorporation of bike sharing systems (BSSs) into regional transportation planning approaches provides the link that connects the regional with the local just as it connects the user from their door to the transit station. To realize its full potential in multimodal chains, bike sharing requires a high level of integration with the anchoring transit system in order to make it convenient and competitive against the personal automobile.

  • Private Data Islands Or Public Data Oasis?
    Private data islands or public data oasis? Why cities need mandatory mobility APIs. 1 SPRING 2019 Executive summary Public, real-time Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) are critical pieces of data infrastructure that facilitate multimodal, multi-operator trips, promote a fair and competitive mobility marketplace, and enable the public to help determine whether a public mobility program’s goals are being met. While NGOs have drafted initial principles that promote public APIs for services that operate on public streets, there is still a lack of specific guidance about how to require these important open real-time feeds. With this policy paper, we point to specific examples as best practices for public, real-time API policies. We also look to the future, envisioning what mobility APIs can achieve beyond simply conveying real-time availability information, with a focus on the evolution of payment APIs. Our enlightened self-interest It’s true: our app exists because of public APIs from transit agencies and mobility operators. While Transit benefits from open APIs, so do other companies — and the general public. Open transport data has led to an entire generation of consumer apps that turn real-time data into useful tools for riders. Requiring public APIs from services that operate on public streets extends a mobility tradition that’s open and fair, while promoting innovation and competition. 1 What are public, real-time APIs? A public, real-time Application Programming Interface (API) allows a mobility operator to provide universal access to real-time information about their service, using a standard data format. Translation: a transit, ridehail, bikeshare, scooter or carshare operator can use a public, real-time API to provide information about where it has vehicles available for use, or when its service is going to arrive, opening up information so potential riders can find and use the service.

  • Hamilton Shared Micro-Mobility
    Appendix "A" to Report PED20109(c) Page 1 of 53 Final Report Hamilton Shared Micro-Mobility Assessment of Operating Models, Funding Sources, and Role of Not-For-Profit Organizations Prepared for City of Hamilton by IBI Group November 5, 2020 IBI GROUP FINAL REPORT Appendix "A" to Report PED20109(c) HAMILTON SHARED MICRO-MOBILITY Page 2 of 53 Prepared for City of Hamilton Executive Summary Since 2015, Hamilton’s bike share program has been an integral part of the way residents and visitors move around the city. It is the only public bike share in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA) outside Toronto and has been recognized by the Transportation Association of Canada and Canada Clean 50 as a model for sustainable urban transportation. As of early 2020 prior to the pandemic, some 5% of Hamiltonians, nearly 27,000 people, are active members and they make over 30,000 trips a month. As the micro-mobility market has evolved with the entry of venture-funded companies, dockless technologies, and electric vehicles, the program now operates in a very different environment from when it launched. Adding to the urgency for change, Uber’s decision to cease operating the system as of June 2020, the lack of penalties for breaking that contract, and the lack of dedicated sources for operating funds together put the system in a precarious state. This study is intended to identify the most suitable operating model to provide sustainable shared micro-mobility in Hamilton and leverage the wide range of new technologies in the market, as well as identify suitable non-tax-based funding sources, and potential expansion areas.

Through concerted efforts, the City of Toronto has become a city of global renown by providing a transportation system that is safe and reliable and supports our strong and diverse economy. Since 2016, Toronto has committed to making its streets safer by prioritizing the safety of our most vulnerable road users with the implementation of the Vision Zero Road Safety Plan. Our latest phase of Vision Zero, adopted unanimously by City Council in July 2019, continues this commitment by taking targeted, proactive actions, such as a speed management strategy to reduce the speed limits on most City streets, and the introduction of automated speed enforcement to target dangerous driving near schools.

  • PA22.12 Improving Toronto's Bike Share Program: Increasing Access
    Submitted by Tamara Nahal, Community Engagement Manager, Cycle Toronto. Toronto Parking Authority (TPA) 10th floor, West Tower City Hall, 100 Queen St W Toronto, ON M5H 2N2 to: [email protected] April 1, 2021 RE: PA22.12 Improving Toronto’s Bike Share Program: Increasing Access and Equity of Bike ShareToronto Bike Share Toronto is an incredible public service that has grown in popularity with every year. New stations have expanded the reach of the system and we are thrilled to have Bike Share stations in more parts of the city than ever! Yet, not everyone in Toronto can access Bike Share due to reasons such as cost, location, and trip length. Therefore, we are writing to members of the Toronto Parking Authority Board to request the following three changes to improve equitable access to Bike Share Toronto: 1. Introduce a low-income pass 2. Expand Bike Share across the city, especially within the inner suburbs 3. Increase the ride duration from 30 minutes to allow for longer trips 1. Introduce a Low-Income Pass In May 2020, City Council passed the ActiveTO acceleration of the Cycling Network Plan including a motion calling for “Bikes for All”, which showed City Council’s interest in pursuing cycling as a transportation mode for low-income residents.1 In September 2020, City Council directed Bike Share to report back on the three items in this letter: a low-income pass, expansion of Bike Share, and the potential for an increase in the trip length.2 We urge the City of Toronto to develop a program to introduce a low-income, easy-to-access pass for Bike Share bikes in Toronto.
