Rapid changes are underway in mobility systems worldwide, including
the introduction of shared mobility solutions, Mobility as a
Service and the testing of automated vehicles. These changes are
driven by the development and application of 'smart' technologies.
Transition to these technologies present significant opportunities
for countries, cities and rural areas alike, offering the tempting
prospect of economic benefit whilst resolving today's safety,
congestion, and pollution problems. Yet while there is a wealth of
research considering how these new technologies may impact on
travel behaviour, improve safety and help the environment, there is
a dearth of research exploring the key governance questions that
the transition to these technologies pose in their disruption of
the status quo, and changes to governance that may be required for
the achievement of positive social outcomes. This book aims to step
into this void and in doing so presents an agenda for future
research and policy action. Bringing together a collection of
internationally recognised scholars, drawing on case studies from
around the world, authors critically reflect on three primary
governance considerations. First, the changing role of the state
both during and post-transition. Second, identifying the voices
shaping the smart mobility discourse. And third, analysing the
implications for the state's capacity to steer networks and
outcomes as a result of these transitions. The authors argue that
at present there exists a critical window of opportunity for
researchers and practitioners to shape transitions and that this
opportunity must be seized upon before it is too late.
