June 05: Mobility for low-density areas: Building a new MaaS vision
Low density areas need high level innovation
Good accesibility in low density must be based around fast and frequent public transport routes, complemented by local services, public, commercial and Peer-to-peer. Using experiences from Swedish rural mobility pilots, the presentation highlights challenges, enablers and solutions for building a transport system that can offer an easy everyday life outside urban areas and without having to own a car (or at least not having to own two or three.)
