Important results from the project
** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** The purpose is to reduce the proportion of travelers with their own vehicle to and from the Kista area for a sustainable future. This can be done by offering attractive and sustainable public transport in the Kista area, which also increases the perceived safety during the journey to and from work. The aim is also to make Kista an even more attractive area and an obvious place for future mobility. The goal is to conduct tests of the service with selected focus groups to enable this.
Expected long term effects
** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** The lessons learned from the users: * Satisfied and wanted the service to continue * The booking app should be developed to meet the traveler´s needs * Travelers were hesitant to pay for the service, but could imagine it if it was cheaper than a taxi or incl. in public transport * Open to use the service even if the trip was shared with others and it was performed by self-driving vehicles. However, they highlighted that the drivers gave a sense of security. The knowledge will be used for further development of mobility solutions for a sustainable future.
Approach and implementation
Focus groups were recruited from property owners in Kista. These were prepared during a ws with info and introductory questions. Electric cars were prepared to be used and drivers were trained. The service was evaluated, by the driver and focus group, after a while and the availability was adjusted. Questionnaires were sent out during the test period. After completing tests, researchers conducted interviews with the focus groups. The results were compiled with answers from surveys and stat. from the app and were presented and discussed during a ws with, among others, Region Sthlm.
