Here are three points you should know about why adopting light mobility can change the panorama for LAC. Such “light mobility” includes micro-cars, mopeds, electric bicycles, and scooters, among many others, that can improve city mobility. The main reason is that cities have been designed for cars, prioritizing large motor vehicles, as our latest report, “Towards the light: Effective light mobility policies in cities,” points out. The rest of days, these large vehicles do not represent the same utility for the person, who could equally use light vehicles in their daily lives to get around. The third point is this: to really boost light mobility, cities need to integrate light mobility options with pedestrian infrastructure and public transport systems.
