Vom Hafen Barcelonas, mit Kolumbus im Rücken, starte ich heute als Smart City Manager der @stadtaugsburg beim Smart City Expo World Congress #SCEWC22 mit meinen ersten Meetings. Hier wird vernetzt, Best Practices ausgetauscht und neue Lösungen für eine effizientere, resilientere und lebendigere Stadtentwicklung besprochen.
Auf zu neuen Ufern der Urbanität!

En comptes de perdre temps amb la penúltima parida d'en Musk, al Catalunya Nit hem repassat algunes novetats del #SCEWC22, el congrés de ciutats espavilades que ha acabat avui a Barcelona.
👏 A successful second day at the #IntelligentCitiesChallenge Conference and Mayors Conference as part of #SCEWC22.
There is still time to follow the livestream, follow to hear about the #ICC next steps & future opportunities for cities: http://www.intelligentcitieschallenge.eu/events/icc-final-conference-and-mayors-forum #COSME_EU
Paris up now talking about geofencing for their scooters too. Wanted to force scooters to be parked in certain zones. 6 scooters max go a zone. It’s imperfect. Started in 2020. I used shared e-scooters in 2019, and scooters were being liberally tossed into the Seine it was a bummer.
Next speaker also taking about scooter parking & geofencing. #SCEWC22 #TMWC22
Ok now we know who this user is. Onto safety analysis. 6/10 don’t feel safe! That’s true scooters & bikes. ESP when sharing w cars.
What can we do about that metric? Users want:
Secure parking
Better education
Network improvements w shared e-scooters. Quality instead of length of network. With full connectivity. Eg no breaks where you have to hop off and walk next to scooter. I hate dismount zones. #SCEWC22 #TMWC22
Where do these users come from? What mode are they shifting from? Ideally some want these users to be ppl shifting from cars. Speaker notes there is almost an “Obsession with this indicator” 86% come from other sustainable modes. Like walking bussing. Not cars. But in Barcelona it’s dense and ppl don’t drive as much. Don’t obsess over shifting from cars. There are other benefits.
40% do however combine with public transit. Nice. #SCEWC22 #TMWC22
These coalition members want consistent rules across Europe for micromobility users. Speed limits, helmets, no twin-riding (I think that’s what she said?), easy to follow rules, enforcement of rules. Sober riding campaign. We struggled in Boulder with e-scooter adoption bc some of the accidents are so catastrophic. We will get an update next month to see how the pilot went. Amazing that Europe trying for single set of rules. Can Mayor Pete roll this out for US?
