Abstract

Bike-sharing-systems (BSS) are crucial for reducing carbon emissions in individual transportation and optimizing spatial and mobility efficiency. However, BSSs are not fully utilized, especially as primary means of transportation for daily commutes. Feedback from users has been the main source for evaluating BSSs and determining its utility so far. Research on non-users is lacking, despite their significant portion of the population. Our research addresses this gap by investigating perceptions and usage-barriers of non-users.
