Mobility HubGroup 1 - Single project 1
This is us:
The presentation - in short:
Intentions starting out - and how the project developed
A quick look at the local cases
Some learnings and elements to consider moving forward
What the project is about
Focus on attractive (!)? commuter parking
- How, where, size, for whom..?
Intention/common goal:
Reduce private cars in town centres
Gathering information
Literature
Case studies (Use of consultants)
Info from public - Maptionnaire/Open meeting
Study Trip
……
And remember - not scientific!
The start of Our Journey...
Our focus shifted from just talking about commuter parking to a mobility hub - and making the connection with livable cities...
What is a Mobility Hub?
Metrolinx:
Places of connectivity where different modes of transportation – from walking to biking to riding transit – come together seamlessly and where there is an intensive concentration of working, living, shopping and/or playing
Commuter parking, Rosenholm (Oslo):
Not a New Topic...
Sources: Metrolinx, San Diego
Forward, Shared Use Mobility
Center
How is all this relevant for our towns?
Local cases
Lund: Regional and local hubs
Hamar: Central hub
Vasa: Network of local hubs
Car dependency much higher in
villages and periphery
How can a mobility-point increase the
attractiveness and competitiveness of
sustainable travels?
What functions and what localisation is
desirable?
Masterplan: All increased travel within Lund municipality should be by
walking, biking and public transport
What we did:
- an inventory of the available research
concerning commuter parking
- interview study with commuters
living in Södra Sandby
Knowledge from part 1 & 2 develop model for
villages (combination of mobility hubs and more trad.
commuter parking)
Regional hubs
Regional focus - but distance still matters! (And must be seen in connection with other measures)
Need to further develop “traditional” commuter parking
Combination with local hubs
Case Vaasa - local hubs
Goals: get people to choose public transport and create a hotspot for services in subcenters
Means: Create mobility hubs with sufficiently high bus frequency
Advantages: Place for people to meet and gather, point for to offer service, reduce need to travel?
Finding the locations: Local knowledge, data on population and workplaces
Challenges:
Planning land use and transport together
Changing attitudes and habits -not to take the car in the first place
Getting stakeholders involved
Studytrip - Focus on central and local hubs
Central and local hubs
Close to where people live (and/or work)
Important for attractive public transport
Provide services:
- Carpool-/sharing, cargobikes, storage, food-delivery, repairs, laundromat, ..
Not necessarily parking?
Summing up - four things to consider:
Focus on purpose and function early on - right place and content
Connect with services!
Redefine business model - either within municipality or through cooperation with private actors
Be flexible - immense development in mobility services (and we are building for the future aren't we?)

Discussion:
What are relevant indicators for
attractiveness and liveability?
Perspective:
Both ‘top-down’ and ‘bottom-up:
- an approach based on local insight
- public participation and co-creation
- measure what public actors can act on
Nordic/ small town qualitiesWhat makes a nordic small to medium size town liveable?

• ‘Slow city’ qualities
• Affordable housing
• Safety
• Democracy: Easy acces to influence and decision-makers
• Social equality

is relevant here – local and unique
• You can experience and sense it
• You can act on it
• It is easy and inexpensive to measure

Experiences
• User friendly
• Provides a widerinvolvement, when used
right
• Many perspectives
• Consider: What would
citizens like to be asked?
• Consider who/ how/ what
you ask for – they are
citizens, not planners
Advices
• Short (mobilefriendly) surveys give the best
results
• Use everyday language
• Short, exact and simple
questionaires
• Avoid assumptions,
negations, emotional
words, superlatives etc
