Shared Mobility and Public Transport: An Assessment on Carsharing in Luxembourg

Effective and well-connected public transport and shared mobility are crucial in the sustainable mobility transition in Luxembourg. Therefore, this research aims to provide an insightful view of carsharing in Luxembourg by initially looking into the existing literature on its definition and how it relates to public transport networks. Following that, questionnaires and interviews investigate the drivers and limitations of carsharing and how strategically placed carsharing stations can enhance public transport networks in Luxembourg. This study contributes to the ongoing discussion of a current theme, which is the need for the deployment of shared mobility in an agenda to reduce the environmental impacts of private vehicles. This paper trusts that the suggested outcome can be helpful for local authorities, policymakers and carsharing providers in Luxembourg and beyond by providing a critical assessment of its current agenda and the potential risk of carsharing replacing rather than...Show moreEffective and well-connected public transport and shared mobility are crucial in the sustainable mobility transition in Luxembourg.
