[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]Mobility is the defining characteristic of modern societies. The freedom to move, and thus the possibility to get to work, meet with others, get access to education, shopping, health care or culture, has massive impact on our quality of life. So how can this basic prerequisite for social participation and thus also for economic growth be ensured?<\/p>\n

\u201cAccess to mobility always means access to society \u2013 to education, to jobs, to leisure\u201d said Christian U. Haas, CEO of PTV<\/a> and Econolite<\/a>, now unified under the brand Umovity<\/a>. \u201cMobility literally brings us forwards. It opens new opportunities and perspectives.\u201d<\/p>\n

This also means: Those who cannot afford mobility or don\u2019t have access to transportation, are excluded from society to some extent. They have fewer opportunities and possibilities to shape their lives freely and individually.<\/p>\n

Among the population groups vulnerable to exclusion are the elderly, children, youth, disabled, people in poverty, migrants and others.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”19536″ img_size=”500×300″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]In the US, for example, 16% of adults and nearly 100 million people<\/a> overall, do not drive because they cannot afford it, are legally ineligible, or are limited by age or disability. And \u00a045% of Americans<\/a> have no access to public transit.<\/p>\n

Christian U. Haas explained: \u201cImproving mobility always has a social aspect and goes hand in hand with sustainability. For decades, traffic planning primarily concentrated on car traffic. This car-centric approach is now slowly changing. Urban and mobility planners focus more and more on people and their mobility needs, in order to shape livable and sustainable environments. That\u2019s an important change in thinking. Humanity is diverse, and so are our mobility needs and movement patterns.\u201d[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]For example, multiple studies have shown, that women have different mobility patterns<\/a>, needs and behaviors as men. Female mobility is characterized by trip-chaining. While the mobility of men is usually still very linear, e.g., the way to work in the morning and back home in the evening, women make several shorter trips \u2013 walking and using public transport mor often. The main reasons for this are that women still do 75% of the world\u2019s unpaid care work. Mobility networks in cities are usually not designed for these mobility patterns. They are mostly built for easy car commuting.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]Access to public transport in rural areas is another example. In Germany bus and train travel makes only 5-7% of the overall traffic volume in rural areas. Due to a poorly developed public transport network and a lack of safe bike lanes, people living on the countryside do not have the freedom to choose their means of transport. They are mostly dependent on their cars or must make long and impractical journeys to reach the nearest shopping center or hospital.<\/p>\n

\u201cAn inclusive mobility must offer diverse options and must be available, affordable, barrier-free and safe for everyone\u201d, said Christian U. Haas.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”19543″ img_size=”500300″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The first and important step toward inclusive and sustainable mobility is therefore to know the mobility needs of different people. Digital tools and innovative technologies play an important role here, for example in accessibility analyses.<\/a> They enable urban and mobility planners to think from the person perspective and to design mobility with an understanding of the different needs in relation to all modes of transport.<\/p>\n

Christian U. Haas concluded: \u201cThat\u2019s what drives us at Umovity! Because humanity is made of many – so is mobility.\u201d[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_cta h2=”” shape=”square” style=”flat” color=”black” add_button=”bottom” btn_title=”Find out more” btn_style=”flat” btn_shape=”square” btn_color=”white” css=”” btn_link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ptvgroup.com%2Fen%2Fapplication-areas%2Faccessibility-analysis|target:_blank”]<\/p>\n

Equity in mobility<\/h2>\n

Accessibility analysis is a powerful tool for planners, to assess how mobility measures enable people to travel to various destinations.[\/vc_cta][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
