Webinar Description:
Mobility hubs serve a critical function in the regional transportation system as origin/destination and transfer points. They are places of connectivity where various modes of transportation—walking, cycling, riding transit, taxi services, and others—come together seamlessly and where there is mixed-use activity such as working, living, shopping, and playing. The amount and density of development feeds off the availability of and interaction between the various modes. Because mobility hubs may include many travel modes, they are prime opportunities for the application of technology innovations, including bikesharing and scooter sharing stations, carsharing and transportation network companies (TNCs), travel information, fare payment apps, and more.

This webinar will provide an overview of the April 2022 ITE Technical Brief on Mobility Hubs, as well as share case studies on successful mobility hub planning and implementation from around the country. Representatives from Denver and Fort Lauderdale will outline their approach and lessons learned to advancing mobility hubs in their local communities.

Learning Objectives:
  • Understand what a mobility hub and the benefits of mobility-hub based planning
  • Explore key typologies of mobility hubs, based both on their spatial setting and transportation system
  • Review global examples of mobility hubs, as well as deep dive case studies from Denver and Fort Lauderdale
  • Identify key challenges and lessons learned from mobility hub planning and implementation
