integrated fare payment methods, and improved information. However, such a system is only possible if pub- lic sector entities make a concerted effort to ensure that collaboration with private mobility provider results in services that work for people of all ages, all incomes and all mobility needs. In the context of this complex the following aspects are addressed in particular: • The permanently growing potential for partnerships and collaboration


• Keeping the tech-enabled inno- vations fair and accessible

shared modes they use most often, followed by bike-sharing (22 per cent). The frequent use of shared modes


is effecting a significant lifestyle change (figure 4).


2. Shared modes complement pub- lic transit, enhancing urban mobility. Ride-sourcing services are most fre- quently used for social trips between 10pm and 4am, times when public transit runs infrequently or is not available. Shared modes substitute more for automobile trips than pub- lic transit trips. The research conducted for the


study suggests that, instead of com- peting for the same riders, public transit and Ride-sourcing comple- ment one another by serving dif- ferent trip types. Ride-sourcing is mainly used for trip purposes like recreation and social and during time periods where only few or even no public transit is available. Only relatively few people use ride-sourc- ing for commuting. And those doing that do it only occasionally.


3. Shared modes will continue to grow in significance, and public enti- ties should identify opportunities to

engage with them to ensure that ben- efits are widely and equitably shared. Public transit agencies should seize opportunities to improve urban mobility for all users through collab- oration and public-private partner- ships, including greater integration of service, information and payment methods. It is explicitly emphasized that eve-


ryone can benefit from a transport system that provides more mobility options through seamless transfers,


)


• Paying attention of the equity implications of fare and service integration


• Public transit is the mode of choice for every income level


• Lower income households have much to gain from wider avail- ability of shared use modes


In this context the transport sector and market-overlapping paying-, information- and management-sys- tems play a key role – in particular based on electronic ticketing7


. To


date full advantage of the potential of e-ticketing has not been taken. This is in particular true for the transit sector
