Mobility in a post-pandemic world : from evolution to revolution. — New York [etc.] : Marsh, 2021

Sumario: COVID-19 is reshaping mobility patterns and the sharing economy around the world. Local retailers found their footing with last mile delivery as packages and pizzas moved more often than people. The first driverless delivery service was licensed in December 2020 for commercial use on public roads in California at speeds of under 35 mph (52 km/h). In April 2020, all categories of bicycle sales were up in the US by 75% to US$1 billion a month for the first time ever while in Berlin 150 kilometers of new bike lanes are being built along with 100,000 parking spaces. Shared e-bikes and dockless e-scooters are being offered to first-responders and transit workers for free to aid their commute as essential workers - taking advantage of thousands of miles of roads that have been converted to bike and pedestrian lanes from New York to Copenhagen, Madrid to Singapore. Some of these shifts in mobility and sharing economy activity and infrastructure may be momentary, but will inspire future action. Many other mobility developments, however, are likely to become permanent fixtures of daily life as we embrace the "new normal" of a post-pandemic society and economy
