WEI Zongcai, XIE Ruimin, HUANG Weichao, LAN Zhiyi
With the rapid development of mobile internet technology and increasing social concern for transportation equity, shared mobility, as an emerging travel mode, is becoming an essential supplement to public transportation, and its equity is receiving more and more attention from the academic community. Based on the concept of shared mobility, the existing research on the equity of shared mobility is summarized and analyzed from three dimensions, i. e., concepts and research methods, problems and influencing factors, and optimization strategies. The results show that the future domestic research needs to strengthen discussion on localized theory of equity of shared mobility, deepen the exploration of influencing mechanism on vertical inequity in shared mobility, and further enrich the research perspectives on optimization strategies to provide research support for improving the unbalanced and insufficient development of shared mobility.
