🚨 E-Scooters in Europe: Stricter Regulations—Are They the Answer? 🚨 A recent trend in European cities is the adoption of stricter regulations for shared e-scooter services. Policymakers believe this will lead to better oversight and improved service quality for citizens. However, our new report, "Shared e-scooter regulations and their impact on European cities," reveals a compelling alternative. 📊 Our research, analyzing 155 cities, demonstrates that lighter and medium regulatory models, including Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) and authorization regimes, can be just as effective. ✅ Here's a breakdown of the regulatory categories we studied: - Light Regulation: 20% - Open markets and markets with standard regulations. - Medium Regulation: 46% - Authorization regimes. - High Regulation: 34% - Public tenders. These lighter and medium models empower cities to maintain control and ensure service quality while effectively meeting the needs of their citizens and political stakeholders. Download the full report to learn more about the effectiveness of various regulatory approaches and how they can shape a sustainable future for European mobility! 🌍🛴 📖 [Read the full report here] https://lnkd.in/eiiGEHKX Michael Flynn Sebastiaan Boschmans Wouter de Wit Nina Neubauer Bianca Melodia Oliver Parsons-Baker 🚶♀️🚲🛴🛵🚍🚇🚊 🚶♀️🚲🛴🛵🚍🚇🚊 #UrbanMobility #EScooters #Sustainability #SmartCities #DeloitteInsights #PublicTransport #MobilityInnovation #Deloitte #ITRG

🔍 In the wake of recent developments in Brussels, it's crucial for cities worldwide to approach micromobility tenders with precision and care. The accelerated process in Brussels highlights the complexities that can arise without thorough analysis. 💡 As a neutral third party working collaboratively between cities and operators, our mission is to seamlessly integrate micromobility into urban transport systems. We understand the delicate balance required for a city to welcome micromobility as a vital part of its transportation flow—safe and financially sustainable for operators. 🌐 With extensive experience in navigating tender processes, we've witnessed the pitfalls and successes. If you're a city official looking to organize a tender process that avoids the complications observed in Brussels, feel free to reach out. Vianova I/O is here to offer advice on ensuring a fair, transparent, and effective micromobility integration. 🌍 #Micromobility #UrbanTransportation #CityPlanning #TenderProcesses #Collaboration #SustainableCities 🌱 https://lnkd.in/dxxTMHmC
