Multimodal Travel

All-in-one transportation apps let users plan routes using many modes of travel

Trend - New apps are making it easier for urban travelers to take advantage of multiple modes of transportation in a single trip. These platforms consolidate both public and private transit offerings, as well as payment and ticketing systems to create a convenient and unified solution for navigating a city.

Insight - Travelers are searching for ways to make their trips cheaper and more efficient while also reducing their carbon footprint. As a result, they are planning routes that blend various transportation methods. However, these consumers have grown tired of switching between apps, remembering ticketing systems, and carrying physical fares. In response, a variety of platforms have consolidated these elements, enabling users to seamlessly hop from train to bus to cab to rideshare e-bike and more.
Workshop Question - How could your brand use consolidation to improve upon its service or product?
Trend Themes
1. Unified Transportation Apps - Integration of various transit options into a single app allows business professionals to have more efficient and environmentally friendly travel experiences.
2. Contactless Payment Systems - Disrupt the public transit industry by implementing touch-free payment options, simplifying the process and enhancing customer experience.
3. Eco-friendly Micro-mobility - Embracing electric micro-mobility options in transit apps can reduce emissions and promote eco-friendly transportation methods.
Industry Implications
1. Mobility as a Service (maas) - Exploit opportunities to create platforms that combine multiple modes of transport, streamlining the planning, booking, and payment processes.
2. Transportation Technology - Innovate in the development and integration of contactless payment systems, providing seamless and secure payment options for users.
3. Smart Cities - Leverage technology to create sustainable urban ecosystems, with eco-friendly multimodal transit options and efficient resource utilization.
