The key directions for integrating micromobility into the public transport

Abstract

This article examines the role of micromobility solutions, such as e-scooters and e-bicycles, in improving the accessibility of public transport. These eco-friendly and compact vehicles are becoming increasingly popular and are already being used in many cities, including those in Uzbekistan. In the context of rapid urban development and uneven coverage of public transport, the “first and last mile” problem remains highly relevant, as residents often face difficulties accessing transport stops. The integration of micromobility can make trips more convenient and accessible, especially in remote or poorly served areas. The development of micromobility in Uzbekistan contributes not only to improved transport accessibility but also to reducing traffic congestion, improving the environmental situation, and supporting the principles of sustainable urban development.
