Abstract

This studydives into factors influencing the shared e-moped usage in first- and last mile. Other studies show that the service area size, vehicle availability the shape of city and the temperature affect the shared e-moped usage. This study confirms the service catchment, temperature and vehicle availability factors. It adds to this that also factors such as the share of young people, bus frequency, shared bike availability, walking distance, visibility and points of interest have an influence. This study also provides a quantification to show which factor has the biggest influence. According to the model results, the vehicle availability at a station is the most important factor. Next to the factors, this study also shows what the usage patterns of shared e-mopeds in first- and last mile transportation are. This study, therefore, helps in understanding the usage of shared e-mopeds as a first- and last mile mode.
