RIDE2RAIL for sustainable mobility

How to improve local mobility services

Data sharing and analysis of people travel habits contribute to improve urban mobility services. RIDE2RAIL is a three-year project started in 2019 within the Shift2Rail European program and aims at promoting an effective ride-sharing practice by citizens, as well as making it a complementary transport mode that extends ride and rail public transport services.


Cefriel’s contributions to the RIDE2RAIL project are multiple, including the survey designed and implemented to identify users’ choice criteria and travel preferences, by using , our innovative solution to design and administer conversational surveys.

SCENARIO

Need

We have to cope with various challenges for an innovative, efficient, and sustainable future, including:

  • identify and conceptualize travellers’ choice criteria and preferences;

  • define incentives to be adopted to influence users in choosing travel categories and raising awareness on more sustainable solutions.

Solution

The RIDE2RAIL solution Cefriel provides for intelligent mobility will support users to compare and choose between different travel offers, leveraging the capability to integrate and harmonise in real-time diverse information about public transport and ride-sharing.

RIDE2RAIL enables to reinforce multimodal mobility offers, especially in rural and low-demand areas, and to promote access to mobility hubs (typically railway stations and public transport stops) and collective transport.
