| Abstract: | Shared mobility has seen an increase in usage the past years. Especially shared micro mobility, such as electric mopeds and bikes, has quickly spread to many cities. This sudden rise to prominence has led to problems, such as vehicles that have been parked obstructively by parking on narrow sidewalks and in front of building entrances. To address these problems and to further integrate shared micro mobility with the public transit network an effort has been made by the municipality of Enschede to pilot the proposed solution to these issues: Shared mobility hubs. The impact of these hubs on the usage of shared mobility, and how land use should be considered when transitioning from a free-floating to a hub system, is little studied and is largely unknown to policy makers. Therefore, this thesis proposes to asses the impact of shared mobility hubs and their relation with points of interest (POIs) on the use of shared mobility in Kennispark and Enschede Noord. In both city regions, a network of hubs has been active since November of 2022 and Juli of 2023 respectively. To compute results on a hub-by-hub basis a network analysis in a geographic information system (GIS) software was executed in order to identify the service area of each hub. The results in Figure 1 show that the network of hubs effectively covered the entirety of Enschede Noord in such a way that everyone is within 300 metres of a hub, which was the objective of the municipality. This proves that the current approach of the municipality of Enschede is effective in creating a blanket hubs. |
