We need to bring public institutions, governments closer to private companies. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Instead of focussing on single users of a specific product or service, they need to think more holistic and in context, always. Because sometimes citizens need cars, and sometimes they can simply walk or bike. Citizens across every city have different needs at different times. Be that riding bikes together with our kids, the key is being flexible and in close proximity to the mobility options.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure class=\"post-image post-mediaBleed aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1384257 js-lazy\" alt=\"mobiity by ebike \" width=\"1640\" height=\"1093\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1640px) 100vw, 1640px\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2022\/04\/nextbike-nRKve7ZMIPk-unsplash.jpeg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2022\/04\/nextbike-nRKve7ZMIPk-unsplash.jpeg 1640w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2022\/04\/nextbike-nRKve7ZMIPk-unsplash-280x187.jpeg 280w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2022\/04\/nextbike-nRKve7ZMIPk-unsplash-203x135.jpeg 203w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2022\/04\/nextbike-nRKve7ZMIPk-unsplash-405x270.jpeg 405w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2022\/04\/nextbike-nRKve7ZMIPk-unsplash-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2022\/04\/nextbike-nRKve7ZMIPk-unsplash-796x531.jpeg 796w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2022\/04\/nextbike-nRKve7ZMIPk-unsplash-1592x1061.jpeg 1592w\"\/><figcaption><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"#\" data-url=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Feditorial.thenextweb.com%2Fshift%2F2022%2F04%2F08%2Fthe-way-to-social-transport-is-mobility-as-a-service-syndication%2F&amp;via=thenextweb&amp;related=thenextweb&amp;text=Check out this picture on: Ebikes are an important part of the mobility-as-a-service mix.

If we do, it becomes crystal clear, that owning a gasoline-powered car simply has no future. It doesn\u2019t just take up space on the road and through parking \u2014 on average it stands still 23 hours a day \u2014 it\u2019s also loud and a heavy polluter, especially compared with an EV. Imagine the space it could free up for citizens and society by having fewer cars across the cityscape. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Even when it\u2019s in use, the capacity of the car puts pressure on everything else by blocking the flow of traffic \u2014 it literally blocks the road for more efficient options such as public transportation and micro-mobility options. And it\u2019s not even efficient for the user themselves. Drivers struggle in traffic jams (a Parisian car driver averages almost 70 hours per year stuck in traffic jams) or when looking for parking lots, and these will get more expensive anyway. Although it might sound like it, the solution is not centered on punishing car drivers. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Most of us need to drive a car from time to time. It\u2019s about making alternative means of transport more attractive, cheaper (or for free), safer, and faster, and we can do this by being smart about how we separate the personal car from the main traffic routes and offering a better option, which we can choose easily for the best context. It\u2019s about creating a great future of mobility that benefits everyone at a society-centric level.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Mobility-as-a-Service<span>\u00a0is the most present and obvious solution to the future of mobility. Shared means of transport, powered by humans or sustainable energy. The benefits would be more space, better air, less noise and overall: more time to enjoy life for all of us. I\u2019m curious and excited about that future, and so are my colleagues at <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/manyone.com\/\">Manyone<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Want_to_find_out_more\"><\/span>Want to find out more?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span>If you\u2019re keen to learn more, you can visit\u00a0<\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"ay vh\" href=\"https:\/\/manyone.com\/mobility\/\">our dedicated mobility page at Manyone.com<\/a><span>\u00a0and explore our five principles for the future of mobility.
