  1. New #OpenAccess research in JTLU: “How #bikesharing changed destination distance for its users: A case study of Chicago Metropolitan Area” by Shubhayan Ukil, University of Michigan, and Aditi Misra, University of Colorado, Denver.

    The paper examines the impact of #Divvy shared bike services in the #Chicago metro region on trip distance of its users across all trips from 2008 and 2018, finding an 0.84km reduction in average trip distance among Divvy users when #bikeshare was available.

    Recommendations include planning for shared bike services that are integrated with #transit in urban areas and promoting mixed land use so that users can choose proximate destinations in dense urban areas.

  2. #Grab is expanding its pilot for a new #ehailing feature that lets people save money with their bookings, as long as they're willing to wait.

    The new #GrabCar Saver option offers a lower fare for rides saving up to 20% off of the usual #fare.

    This is similar discount to its #GrabShare option, but unlike the #carpooling feature, people won’t be limited to just 1 #passenger but rather 4 #passengers like #JustGrab.
