Abstract

The think tanks of developing countries have decided to go ahead with a shared mobility initiative to target the traffic-related challenges. The focus of the initiative is on making structural changes. Behavioural changes, although important, find a secondary place while planning such implementation. The current research has developed a conceptual and hypothesised model based on the documents and literature advocating shared mobility and tested the same using secondary and primary data. The shared mobility readiness index (SMRI) and shared mobility hesitation index (SMHI) are created to understand the acceptability of this initiative. The research concludes that the people are influenced by the idea but when it is their turn to implement it, they will hesitate. It has also been observed that since the problem is city-specific, the responsibility of the behavioural change lies with the local self-governments.
