Project Description

In an equitable society, a physically accessible built environment should be a universal right. This research aims to elaborate a set of accessibility metrics for electric micromobility – addressing needs and capabilities of vulnerable individuals – to ensure that the infrastructure for this mode of transportation can provide equitable mobility. A systematic literature review will be undertaken to better identify the main gaps within this topic, followed by quanti-qualitative methodological approaches to elaborate more realistic accessibility metrics and to indicate policy applications focused on social equity.
