ParkMobile Research Study – Empowering the Multimodal Journey

Today’s mobility solutions are enabling people to get where they are going using a variety of transportation options that reduce friction in the process. As these solutions continue to expand, it’s not about which mobility player is going to win in the end, but about how all of the available options fit together to create a seamless mobility journey for the consumer.

The Multimodal Consumer

ParkMobile conducted a survey with 500+ users to see what mobility services people are engaging with beyond the app. While cars remain the default for many urban trips, other transportation options are a key component of the consumer journey.
