Personal or Public? Urban Mobility in a Low Carbon World

Background / Context
By 2025/2030, it is expected that over 60% of the global population will live in cities. This extraordinary growth will lead to integration of core city centres with the outer suburbs and 'daughter' cities. These expanding city limits will result in the emergence of Mega-cities, Mega-regions, Mega-corridors and even Mega-slums, with urban populations between 10 and 100 million (in the case of some Mega-corridors in emerging markets.)

This increasing urbanisation will have a profound impact on personal mobility and on transport of the future. Transport companies are re-inventing themselves as mobility companies, offering new products and measuring their mobility share, not market share. New initiatives like bike and car pooling, high speed rail, integrated door-to-door services, and Smartphone-based transport assistants are set to become common place in a more congested world. In order to keep up, transport authorities will need to respond with fully integrated and multi-modal solutions. The landscape of 'mobility experience' is changing.

The challenge for the government is to pre-empt this landscape, by understanding and prioritising investment, and promoting sustainable and cost efficient transport solutions. Greater buy-in and understanding among users and customers is crucial if policy is to nurture and encourage sustainable travel practices among urbanites of the future.
Objective and Format

The objective of this debate is to promote thinking, in industry and in government, about contrasting future mobility scenarios. On one side, those in favour of the development of more sustainable personal transport (i.e. cars), on the other, those in favour of developing integrated multi-modal public transport.

Each panel will discuss the future of mobility within their transport mode and attempt to prove why, where and how government policies should support their industry. Key topics that each panel will be asked to cover are as follows:

  1. How will new mobility models change and improve transport? e.g. HS2, cycling infrastructure, door-to-door services
  2. What impact will these solutions have on factors beyond ease-of-use, e.g. noise and air pollution, congestion, etc?
  3. Evidence suggests that consumers want connected mobility. What steps are being taken to provide connectivity?
  4. What support does the industry need in terms of government policy, subsidies and investment?
