“…Similarly, Yu et al (2017) evaluated the direct environmental benefits of ridesharing in Beijing, and found that it enabled energy savings, distance savings, and lower CO 2 emissions. Stiglic et al (2016b) studied the impact of driver and rider flexibility in an enhanced dynamic ridesharing experience and found that suggested driver and rider flexibility on departure/arrival times was important to ridesharing system success, but that driver flexibility in terms of accepting detours was even more important. Thus, the benefits and positive impacts of ridesharing are linearly correlated to the flexibility of ridesharing participants.…”

The rise of research into shared mobility systems reflects emerging challenges, such as rising traffic congestion, rising oil prices and rising environmental concern. The operations research community has turned towards more sharable and sustainable systems of transportation. Shared mobility systems can be collapsed into two main streams: those where people share rides and those where parcel transportation and people transportation are combined. This survey sets out to review recent research in this area, including different optimization approaches, and to provide guidelines and promising directions for future research. It makes a distinction between prearranged and real-time problem settings and their methods of solution, and also gives an overview of real-case applications relevant to the research area.

“…It offers commuters a more comfortable and time-efficient travel option and allows owners of vehicles to recover some of the journey costs [13]. Furthermore, ridesharing is helpful in reducing congestion, pollution, emission, and demand for parking infrastructure [14][15][16][17][18][19]. Ridesharing may also play an important role in redistributing income by providing poor residents the opportunity to access cheap transport services or secondary jobs [13].…”

Abstract:Recently we have witnessed the worldwide adoption of many different types of innovative technologies, such as crowdsourcing, ridesharing, open and big data, aiming at delivering public services more efficiently and effectively. Among them, ridesharing has received substantial attention from decision-makers around the world. Because of the multitude of currently understood or potentially unknown risks associated with ridesharing (unemployment, insurance, information privacy, and environmental risk), governments in different countries apply different strategies to address such risks. Some governments prohibit the adoption of ridesharing altogether, while other governments promote it. In this article, we address the question of how risks involved in ridesharing are governed over time. We present an in-depth single case study on Singapore and examine how the Singaporean government has addressed risks in ridesharing over time. The Singaporean government has a strong ambition to become an innovation hub, and many innovative technologies have been adopted and promoted to that end. At the same time, decision-makers in Singapore are reputed for their proactive style of social governance. The example of Singapore can be regarded as a revelatory case study, helping us further to explore governance practices in other countries.

“…The work in this area typically considers door-to-door trips in which a driver moves one or more riders from their origin to their destination (see for example Agatz et al [2011], Wang et al [2015], Lee and Savelsbergh [2015], and Stiglic et al [2016]). Furuhata et al [2013] and Agatz et al [2012] provide a detailed overview of this line of research and the links to other modes of transportation.…”
