mobility post-COVID

Wyman Forum.

The research conducted with The Institute of Transportation
Studies at the University of California, Berkeley analyzes cities
across 56 metrics, including regulation, infrastructure, social
impact, and the ability to adapt future technologies. This year’s
index added 20 cities, bringing the total to 50.
“Many cities around the world were at a tipping point, even
before COVID and while we won’t know the true impact on cities yet,
the cities that ranked high are in a better position to meet future
challenges,” said Guillaume Thibault, an Oliver Wyman partner and
one of the creators of the index.
European Cities Dominate
Half of the top ten cities -- Amsterdam, London, Helsinki,
Berlin and Paris -- are in Europe. Most rely on mass transit, are
easily walkable, and prioritize clean mobility as well as safety.
They also work with local academic institutions and are
well-connected regionally and internationally with dense air and
rail networks
“European cities have a great balance across all the dimensions
of the index with the top cities scoring high across most of the
categories,” said Professor Alexandre Bayen, director of the
Institute of Transportation Studies at the University of
California, Berkeley. “These cities have a richer portfolio of
mobility options and infrastructure systems making them more
resilient in the face of crisis.”
Singapore Remains Number One
Singapore remains number one partly because of its focus on
forward looking traffic management, which includes road user
charges with adaptive pricing, the first automated rail system as
well as roadways that accommodate self-driving vehicles. With six
major airports, number two ranked London, leads in international
connectivity. The city also has a wealth of leading universities
which allows for innovation to flourish.
Number seven, Helsinki is noted for its superior air quality and
a high market share of electric vehicles. It also has a
comprehensive transportation network featuring affordability,
density as well as access to Finland’s rail network.
Berlin (number eight) is noted for its resilience. The impact of
its risk preparedness and service continuity was evident early in
the COVID-19 pandemic. The city has also embraced diverse,
connected modes of public transit — from the U-Bahn to the ferry —
as well as an integrated app which allows for multimodal route
planning and ticketing across public and private operators.
The index launched at a virtual event titled “The Future of
Urban Mobility” on September 29th and 30th, which included a
keynote by Eleni Kounalakis, 50th Lieutenant Governor of
California. The event featured discussions among global leaders
from industry, technology, academia, finance, and non-governmental
organizations on ways to address the complex challenges posed by
the global mobility revolution. Several upcoming Global Mobility
Executive Forums are also planned. For additional details, please
