Shared Micromobility: Questionnaire Survey Data, 2022

This data collection includes questionnaire survey data for the CoCoMo project and three versions of the questionnaire used for data collection in Greater Manchester, UK; Utrecht, the Netherlands; and Malmö, Sweden. The questionnaire surveys were conducted from July to September 2022. The surveys were restricted to residents aged 18 and over in the three study areas. The questionnaire consists of four sections, covering a range of questions on demographic and socioeconomic characteristics, stated and revealed preferences related to shared micromobility (SMM) and other forms of transport, attitudes and perceptions of SMM, and social connections. The questionnaire was provided in the native language of each respective country with an additional English version offered as an option. The questionnaire survey data includes responses from 2,058 participants.

SMM, e.g., shared bikes, shared e-scooters, and shared e-bikes, have been appearing in towns and cities across the world in recent years. It is hoped that they can contribute to improving sustainability, equity and social inclusion in urban mobility. They could do this by providing low carbon, low pollution, and affordable travel. SMM can be used for making single journeys, or allowing people to get to and from public transport. Yet there are many questions about whether, or a what circumstances, SMM fulfils this ambition. The aim of the questionnaire survey is to investigate (1) how shared micromobility (SMM), e.g., shared bikes, shared e-scooters, and shared e-bikes, are combined with existing travel modes within trips and longer-term travel patterns and what implications this has for sustainability; (2) how SMM interacts with existing forms of travel in public space and how this impacts the attractiveness and accessibility of these modes; and (3) how the travel implications of, and access to, SMM differ between geographical contexts and socio-economic groups, and what impacts this has on equity and inclusion.<p>Shared micromobility, that is shared bicycles and shared e-scooters, have been appearing in towns and cities across the world in recent years.

They could do this by providing low carbon, low pollution, and affordable travel. Shared micro-mobility can be used for making single journeys, or allowing people to get to and from public transport. Yet there are many questions about whether, or a what circumstances, shared bicycles or shared e-scooters fulfil this ambition. There are also concerns about disbenefits of some shared bicycles or shared e-scooter schemes, such as safety, conflict with pedestrians and spatial inequalities in availability of the schemes.

The CoCoMo project investigates whether or how shared bicycles or shared e-scooter schemes can be designed, or re-designed, so that they contribute to sustainability and accessibility. We have conducted research in Greater Manchester, Utrecht and Malmö, each of which has very different provision of shared micro-mobility. By investigating these three European areas, we have opportunity to understand how different factors influence social inclusion, equity and environmental sustainability.

This dataset forms part of the project and consists of a questionnaire and responses. The questionnaire asked people in the three research areas (Greater Manchester, Utrecht and Malmö) their opinions of shared micromobility services and whether or not they use these services.

Our early findings indicate that there is a difference in the acceptability of shared-e-scooters and shared bicycles. Shared bicycles have higher acceptability than shared e-scooters in each of the areas we studied. Yet the level of acceptability for both shared bicycles and shared e-scooters is also different in each area. Shared e-scooters are considered most acceptable in Greater Manchester and least acceptable in Malmö. This is interesting as they are far more widespread in Malmö. Shared bicycles are also most acceptable in Greater Manchester, but the variation in acceptability between the three areas is much less for shared bicycles than for shared e-scooters.

Further outputs will be forthcoming. In addition to contributing to knowledge about sustainability and inclusion in urban mobility, we anticipate our findings will be useful to transport planners and service providers, and to the public interested in participating in transport planning for their towns and cities.</p>

本数据集包含CoCoMo项目的问卷调查数据，以及分别用于英国大曼彻斯特（Greater Manchester）、荷兰乌得勒支（Utrecht）和瑞典马尔默（Malmö）三地数据采集的三套问卷版本。本次问卷调查于2022年7月至9月开展，调查对象仅限上述三个研究区域内年满18周岁的居民。问卷共分为四个模块，涵盖人口统计学与社会经济特征、共享微出行（Shared Micromobility, SMM）及其他交通方式的陈述性偏好与显示性偏好、对共享微出行的态度与认知，以及社会联系等多类问题。问卷采用各研究区域的本土语言编制，并额外提供英语版本作为可选方案。本次问卷调查共回收2058份参与者回复。

共享微出行（Shared Micromobility, SMM），例如共享自行车、共享电动滑板车与共享电动自行车，近年来已在全球各地城镇普及。学界期望其能助力提升城市出行领域的可持续性、公平性与社会包容性，通过提供低碳、低污染且经济实惠的出行方式实现上述目标。共享微出行既可用于单次短途出行，也可作为接驳公共交通的工具。然而，关于共享微出行能否以及在何种情境下达成这一愿景，仍存在诸多疑问。本次问卷调查的研究目标为：（1）探究共享微出行（Shared Micromobility, SMM），即共享自行车、共享电动滑板车与共享电动自行车，如何与现有出行方式融入单次行程及长期出行模式，并分析其对可持续性的影响；（2）分析共享微出行与公共空间内既有交通方式的互动关系，及其对这类出行方式的吸引力与可达性的影响；（3）对比不同地理环境与社会经济群体在使用共享微出行的出行影响及获取渠道方面的差异，并探讨其对公平性与包容性的作用。

共享微出行，即共享自行车与共享电动滑板车，近年来已在全球各地城镇普及。学界期望其能助力提升城市出行领域的可持续性、公平性与社会包容性，通过提供低碳、低污染且经济实惠的出行方式实现上述目标。共享微出行既可用于单次短途出行，也可作为接驳公共交通的工具。然而，关于共享微出行能否以及在何种情境下达成这一愿景，仍存在诸多疑问。此外，部分共享自行车或共享电动滑板车项目还存在安全隐患、与行人产生冲突、投放布局存在空间不平等性等弊端，引发了社会关切。

CoCoMo项目旨在探究共享自行车或共享电动滑板车项目应如何设计或优化，方能助力实现可持续性与可达性目标。研究团队分别在大曼彻斯特、乌得勒支与马尔默三地开展了调研，这三个区域的共享微出行配套设施情况差异显著。通过对这三个欧洲区域的研究，我们得以深入剖析不同因素如何影响社会包容性、公平性与环境可持续性。本数据集为该项目的一部分，包含问卷内容与参与者回复。问卷旨在调研上述三个研究区域居民对共享微出行服务的看法，以及其是否使用该类服务。

我们的初步研究结果显示，共享电动滑板车与共享自行车的接受度存在差异：在所有调研区域中，共享自行车的接受度均高于共享电动滑板车；且两类服务的接受度在不同区域也存在显著区别。共享电动滑板车的接受度在大曼彻斯特最高，在马尔默最低——这一现象颇具研究价值，因为马尔默的共享电动滑板车普及程度远高于其他两地。共享自行车的接受度同样在大曼彻斯特最高，但三个区域间共享自行车接受度的差异幅度远小于共享电动滑板车。

后续研究成果将陆续发布。本研究除了丰富城市出行领域关于可持续性与包容性的相关认知外，我们预计其研究结果还将为交通规划者、服务提供商，以及有意参与所在城镇城市交通规划的公众提供参考价值。
