About this book:
Discover how a quiet revolution on two wheels is reshaping the way we move through our cities. *The Rise of Micro‑Mobility in Cities* takes you from the humble origins of bike‑sharing to the explosive arrival of e‑scooters, revealing the technology, economics, and social forces that have turned these nimble vehicles into everyday essentials.
Through vivid case studies, hard‑hitting data, and candid discussions of the challenges—clutter, safety, regulation, and equity—this book offers a balanced, insider’s look at why micro‑mobility matters to commuters, planners, and anyone who cares about sustainable urban life.
Look ahead to 2040 and imagine a city where short‑range, on‑demand transport eases congestion, cuts emissions, and reconnects neighborhoods. If you want to understand the present—and help shape the future—of urban transport, this is the guide you’ve been waiting for.
