This project focuses on the analysis of the mobility patterns in The Sustainable City (TSC), a sustainabilityinspired environmental-friendly community in Dubai (partially inspired by the UC Davis West Village), and the investigation of the market for an EV-carsharing program to be developed in the community and the travel behavior impacts of the deployment of a driverless shuttle.

 

Disruptive Transportation

#Shared Mobility

reginas paper pic

Ride-hailing services have experienced significant growth in adoption since the introduction of Uber, in 2009. Although business models to support the sharing of vehicles (e.g., carsharing) have been present in the United States for more than 15 years, their adoption has been somewhat limited to niche markets in dense, urban cities or college campuses.
