Abstract
People living in cities have more
mobility options than ever before. Making the most out of
expanding travel choices for cities and their residents will
require integration among different mobility services.
Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) can provide an organizing
framework for integrating multiple mobility options and
shaping how they can work together to provide a more
seamless travel experience and support broader development
outcomes in developing cities. This report contextualizes
the concept of Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) for cities in
low- and middle-income countries, discussing how this
powerful framework may advance sustainable mobility and
development goals. To reap the greatest benefits, MaaS
implementation requires government leadership, systematic
thinking around societal goals, and new technical
capabilities—all important capacities that may not be
readily available in developing cities. To begin building
these capacities, this publication discusses the critical
issues involved in deploying MaaS from the perspectives of
supply, demand, technology, business, and governance.
