Shared Mobility Simulations for Auckland

Case-Specific Policy Analysis, Policy Insights,

27 November 2017

Consider integrating shared mobility services into Auckland’s existing transport offer.
Use shared services as feeder service for train, ferry and bus rapid transit services to increase use of public transport.
Ensure shared mobility services are provided in a large enough area of Auckland.
Target shared mobility services for potential early adopters.
Integrate land use and transport policies to limit urban sprawl and support the uptake of shared mobility services.
Create a legal and regulatory framework focused on delivering societal benefits from uptake of shared mobility services.
Make sharing of performance data a pre-requisite for licensing shared mobility services.

Shaping the Relationship Between Public Transport and Innovative Mobility

Corporate Partnership Board Report, Policy Insights,

30 May 2017

Focus on improving overall mobility outcomes, not just on lowering public transport costs.
Set a vision for urban transport that includes full integration of innovative mobility options.
Ensure partnerships between public transport and innovative mobility operators to improve mobility for all people, including those with disabilities.
Target low-performing or costly routes, and leverage government assets to guide convergence.
Split regulatory oversight from operation of urban transport and adapt procurement practices.
Mitigate innovation risk for new services through pilots and portfolio management.
Incentivise age- and disability-friendly interactions in partnerships between public transport and ride-service operators.

Transition to Shared Mobility

Transport Outlook, Policy Insights,

29 January 2017

The 2016 Paris climate agreement must be translated into concrete actions for the transport sector.
Policy will need to embrace and respond to disruptive innovation in transport.
Reducing CO2 from urban mobility needs more than better vehicle and fuel technology.
Targeted land-use policies can reduce the transport infrastructure needed to provide more equitable access in cities.
Governments need to develop planning tools to adapt to uncertainties created by changing patterns of consumption, production and distribution.
