Public Acceptance of Smart and Green Mobility Hubs in Attica, Greece
Mobility hubs are meeting points for shared and active mobility within the existing public transport system. Despite an extensive public transportation network, private vehicle dependency remains high, indicating a critical need to enhance alternative transport modes. The aim of this study was to investigate public acceptance of smart and green mobility hubs, a crucial parameter for the successful transition from passenger cars to public transport. To achieve this objective, a stated preference survey was developed and distributed to a sample of 152 participants at two stations, namely Voula and Irakleio, that correspond to different public transport modes, tram and metro. Results indicated a generally positive attitude towards the development of green and smart mobility hubs. The survey revealed variations in commuter preferences between the two locations, with green spaces and smart charging benches being highly valued. Ultimately, this research illustrated that well-designed mobility hubs are instrumental in creating efficient, sustainable and livable urban environments, setting a new standard for future urban planning and development. The proposed interventions are expected to substantially contribute to the promotion of sustainable urban mobility in the respective areas and the broader city, enhancing quality of life and reducing the environmental footprint.
