Shared & combined mobility
Drive Sweden strive to make the use of vehicles more efficient and to improve accessibility to mobility for all.
Combined mobility, mobility services, shared vehicles and well-developed public transport, enable a more seamless journey door-to-door. Our freedom of movement then becomes less dependent on access to a private car. When vehicles are shared, they are better utilized, which in turn leads to less need of parking spaces.
Sustainable business models, good visibility in the urban space, good knowledge of the users' needs, connected travelers and vehicles as well as digital solutions that harmonize and coordinate travel planning and ticket purchases, are important factors for accessible combined mobility.
The field of mobility services is broadening and changing rapidly as new solutions come onto the market. Browse our projects (and program activities?) driving the development and the implementation in Sweden.
