The shift from individually owned vehicles to interconnected shared mobility solutions used as an as-needed service, also known as mobility as a service (MaaS), has accelerated.
Fremont, CA: The COVID-19 epidemic posed major issues to how society runs, including a significant decrease in commuting traffic as well as a shift in the sorts of transportation individuals, particularly young adults, are willing to utilise. One thing remains constant: people in both urban and rural regions seek easy and accessible mobility. Witnessing a rise in the number of people using apps and public transit instead of personal vehicles, this trend will continue in the coming years as many younger folks living in congested metropolitan areas are hesitant to spend on vehicle purchases and maintenance.
While the pandemic reduced commuter traffic, the truth remains that many individuals, particularly the younger population, choose alternative modes of transportation, such as public transportation and cycling.
The shift from individually owned vehicles to interconnected shared mobility solutions used as an as-needed service, also known as mobility as a service (MaaS), has accelerated. Younger generations, notably Generation Z, are ditching their cars in favour of city bikes, scooters, and ride-hailing services. Of course, they are tech-savvy and comfortable with smartphone apps, so it's no surprise that highly successful rideshare apps have seen widespread adoption and growth. MaaS providers often function as intermediates, providing smartphone apps for real-time and on-demand mobility services such as end-to-end ticketing and payment.
Furthermore, MaaS provides integrated private, shared, and public modes of transportation to move individuals from one location to another. MaaS offers inclusive mobility for anybody, especially for the elderly and crippled. It provides a framework for managing disruptive forces and leads to a future of accessible, equitable, and sustainable transportation.
