Mobility hubs are often mistaken for transit stations, but they serve a broader purpose—connecting people to a variety of sustainable transportation options. Unlike traditional transit stations that primarily facilitate foot traffic into shared vehicles, mobility hubs are designed to support seamless transfers across multiple modes, such as bike share, car rentals, and repair services. This versatility makes them more inclusive and responsive to diverse mobility needs.
Effective mobility hubs are built on three key principles: multimodal access, ease of connectivity, and appropriate scale. They offer transportation choices for every stage of a journey—starting, continuing, and ending—while ensuring users can move easily between modes. Design features like clear access paths and right-sized infrastructure help make these hubs reliable and sustainable. With growing public interest in accessible and affordable transport, mobility hubs present a practical solution for improving community mobility and reducing reliance on personal vehicles.
