Resource detail

The study highlights the mobility challenges cities face on a worldwide basis. This report introduced the first Arthur D. Little Urban Mobility Index, which assessed the mobility maturity and performance of 66 cities worldwide, and triggered high interest within the mobility industry and in the media on a global scale. The second version includes an updated version of the Urban Mobility Index, with an extended scope of 84 cities worldwide as well as an extended set of criteria. The index finds most cities are still badly equipped to cope with the challenges ahead indicating there is still significant potential for improvement. This report highlights what is holding cities back, and, together with its partner the UITP – the International Association of Public Transport – identifies three strategic directions for cities to better shape the future of urban mobility. The study also describes 25 imperatives to consider when defining sustainable urban mobility policies and case studies of cities demonstrating good practice.
