E-Mobility for last-mile connectivity
The public transport operator (Hochbahn) will develop an e-scooter sharing system with support of the project (50 e-scooter co-funded by the project and the city), which will aim to test an incentive and pricing scheme that complements the public transport system and coverage rather than competing with it.
The introduction of charging solutions (T-Systems), smart last-mile services in the peri-urban (SOLUTIONSplus Maas App) will be part of demonstration activities. This will also analyse the complementarities of potential business models.
Hamburg will mirror some of the demonstration actions carried out in Nanjing, China.

Trends and drivers
Between 2002 and 2017 the share of bicycle trips in Hamburg grew from just under 10 to 15 per cent. The share of public transport rose from just under 20 to 22 percent. Hamburg's hinterland also shows a slight increase in share of public transport (currently around 10 per cent). 27 per cent of all trips by Hamburg residents are on foot. In the surrounding area, it is only around 20 per cent in 2017 (infas 2019, 6). The public transport system receives high approval rates, with three out of four respondents grading it with good or very good (only walking scores better) (infas 2019, p. 20).
Motorised private transport had a share of 26 per cent in 2017. This means that the citizens of Hamburg covered a good third of their journeys by car, motorbike or truck. In 2002 and 2008, this share was still over 30 per cent. However, in the surrounding area, the decline in the use of private vehicles is small: from over 60 per cent in 2008 now falling just below this mark (infas 2019, p. 7). In general, the average length of the distances travelled by car increases, while the proportion of these distances decreases (ibid). In Hamburg, more than half of all passenger kilometres are currently travelled by car every day (40,000,000 out of 70,000,000 km).
