title: The difference in motives of rental e-scooter and rental e-bike use in Groningen
ispublished: unpub
full_text_status: public
abstract: Since February 2022, a major construction work takes place on the ring road of Groningen, causing a lot of car traffic congestion. Next to the already known e-scooters, rental e-bikes help to ensure mobility in and around the city. This research explores the difference in motives to either take the rental e-bike or e-scooter. A literature review and quantitative analysis will research the main question: ‘What are the different motives of inhabitants of Groningen to either use the rental e-bike or e-scooter?’ In this paper price, exercise, speed and owning a driver’s license are seen as the most essential factors in transport mode choice. However, future research is needed for validation of the findings, for example by extending the number of respondents and including more factors.
