9 Role of bike-sharing in mobility Transitions: Can bike-sharing contribute to a more sustainable mobility system? Transition theory (transport). Geels, F. 9

10 Role of bike-sharing in mobility In an extreme event or catastrophe, bike-sharing can contribute to generate a shock in the system which allows a transition from a marginal option towards a more prominent one. 10

12 CHALLENGES Information challenges Management challenges Financial challenges Other economic challenges Social challenges Conceptual challenges 12

13 Information challenges Open data, big data: Apps Data management Transparency Barclays Cycle Hire Londres (UK)

14 Information challenges Research 14

15 Management challenges Complexity Feasibility studies Follow up and evaluation Flexibility/adaptat ion! Wood, J. et al.,

16 Management challenges Environmental coherence: air pollution emissions CO2 Modal change from motorized vehicle to the bicycle (10%) SAVINGS EMISSION Bicycle redistribution in motorized transport (Vans and lorries) 16

17 Management challenges Evaluation Objectives > indicators Source: Fishman,

18 Management challenges Integration with public transport Transport for London Logos 19

19 Management challenges Environmental adaptation 20

20 Managament/financial challenges Lack of transparency OCT 30, 2013 Careful with bids, procurement and contracts Establish a financial plan, look for sponsors and funding 21

21 Economic challenges Sponsors: - Is it desirable to use brands in public spaces and services? - How much is enough to put a name to the scheme? (Bicing: Vodafone 4 M euros in 3 years 8,6% annual costs; Barclays (Now Santander) 20% annual costs) - Es deseable? La ordenanza de Paisaje Urbano del Ayuntamiento de Barcelona, impide la publicidad en los vehículos de transporte (...) para preservar el carácter emblemático de los mismos. 22

22 Social challenges In the management side: Social coherence: workers from social programmes Employment: In Barcelona, every 24 public bicycles generate one direct job position (service andmaintenance) (Avilés, C. et al., 2011) 23 Project Biciboi Fundación Marianao

23 For users Social challenges Public service = for everyone? 24

24 - Equity Social challenges 25

25 Conceptual challenges What happens with private bicycle trips? % cumulative increase since /2004 On-street bicycle parking 459% Inner city trips 338% Km cycle lanes 86% Desplazamientos internos diarios en bicicleta en Barcelona Internos (Bicicleta privada) Internos (Bicing) Fuente: E.Anaya, 2015 a partir de Ayto. de Barcelona Trip purpose of private bicycle and of public bicycles are partly different The user profile can be different or not (multimodal user) 26

26 Conceptual challenges Normalisation of cycling 27

27 Conceptual challenges Cost-benefit, what to include: positive externalities Not so applicable with electric bicycles Economic benefits for health of Bicing are estimated 21,1 M (costs are 18 M ) Benefits of physical activity with Bicing overweight up to 79 times the health risks caused by air pollution exposure and accidentality Fuente: Rojas-Rueda, D. et al
