The rapid urbanization and pursuit of sustainability have elevated shared mobility as a cornerstone smart cities. Among its modalities, scooter-sharing has gained popularity for convenience eco-friendliness, yet it faces significant adoption barriers. This study investigates the challenges to systems within cities, focusing on Silesian region Poland case study. It aims identify region-specific barriers opportunities in Central Eastern Europe provide insights into long-term development trends potential challenges. Using comprehensive statistical methods, including factor analysis regression models, this identifies key such insufficient bike paths, poor path conditions, inadequate signage, fleet maintenance issues, complex rental processes. External factors like adverse weather heavy traffic, coupled with health safety concerns, further hinder adoption, particularly among vulnerable populations. Additionally, explores future scooter-sharing, emphasizing role advanced technologies, adaptive urban planning, sustainable management ensuring feasibility. Drawing global studies, underscores need tailored infrastructural investments, management, user-centric policies align city goals sustainability, accessibility, improved mobility. These findings offer actionable policymakers service providers striving integrate evolving landscape

Published: April 17, 2025

Bike-sharing initiatives play a crucial role in sustainable urban transportation, addressing vehicular congestion, air quality issues, and sedentary lifestyles. However, the connection between bike-sharing facilities advantages perceived by users remains insufficiently explored particular post-industrial regions, such as Silesia, Poland. This study develops multidimensional framework linking infrastructure elements—such station density, bicycle accessibility, maintenance standards, technological integration—to benefits. Using mixed-methods approach, survey conducted key Silesian cities combines quantitative analysis (descriptive statistics, factor analysis, regression modelling) with qualitative insights from user feedback. The results indicate that most valuable benefits are health improvements (e.g., improved physical fitness mobility) environmental sustainability. infrastructural deficiencies—disjointed bike path systems, uneven placements, irregular maintenance—substantially hinder system efficiency accessibility. Inadequate adversely affects efficiency, safety, sustainability, highlighting necessity for predictive upkeep optimised services. research underscores innovation enhancing promoting seamless integration across multiple modes, diversification of fleets (including e-bikes cargo bikes), use sophisticated digital solutions like real-time tracking, contactless payment IoT-based monitoring. Furthermore, transformation areas into cycling-supportive environments presents strategic opportunities regional revitalisation. These findings extend beyond context offering actionable policymakers, mobility planners, Smart City stakeholders worldwide, aiming to foster inclusive, efficient, technology-enabled systems.
