Mobility hubs: Why, who, how?

Mobility hubs are often presented as the solution for enhanced accessibility, a shift towards sustainable mobility and/or improved public space. Sometimes, they seem to be a goal in itself. 

In our research, we try to find out how to achieve the mobility, spatial and societal goals by investigating the potential users and their needs, and the required offered modes and facilities accordingly.

The highlights of multiple research projects are presented the infographic below. More details and extra insights are available via the related research papers.
