A report recommends a new framework for transportation officials to understand the unique mobility needs of women and caregivers, emphasizing the importance of reimagining 'mobility hubs.' Swedish and American designers conducted workshops revealing unrecognized travel needs, indicating that current planning often overlooks these groups. The research emphasizes the necessity for cities to translate these findings into improved infrastructure at key transport points, ensuring accessibility and support for all users, particularly for gender-marginalized individuals who face distinct transportation challenges.
"We wanted to know: who are these hubs really serving? Who are they not serving? Where are they typically placed, and where are they enabling people to travel?"
"The research reveals that many of the invisible needs of women and caregivers were unaccounted for, highlighting significant gaps in existing transportation planning and resources."
