Imagine a day in the city when, arriving at your commuter rail stop, or your condo development, or your workplace, or the mall, or any number of other convenient locations, you would find one of a vital network of “New Mobility HUBs” with easy access to:
Buses, trains, & streetcars | |
Clean fuel taxis | |
Carshare vehicles and BikeShare bicycles | |
Bike parking | |
A walkable environment | |
A café and news stand with wireless internet access | |
Maps, trail guides, and other tourism information | |
Bike and rollerblade rentals and repair | |
Real-time information on when trains, buses, and streetcars will arrive and depart | |
Payment & discounts integrated on one electronic smart card. |
This vision is realistic and achievable. Around the world urban transportation is evolving to become more seemless and integrated. Moving the Eonomy’s New Mobility HUBS Network project is exploring how to make it happen sooner in the Toronto region and beyond.
