Micromobility: Revolution or distraction?

Micromobility – the use of bicycles, e-scooters, e-bikes and cargo bikes – is helping to revolutionise the movement of people and freight in cities. In particular, the spotlight has come down on these modes during the pandemic as they suggest a non-car way to travel whilst maintaining distance from others. Many sing about their potential benefits; the ability to reduce private car trips, enhance accessibility, even their contribution to reducing carbon emissions. But perhaps the industry has developed too quickly and gone a step too far? Should our efforts be focused elsewhere?

Success with Smart Working: in harmony with biology, neuro-science and philosophy
