It says that through this initiative, the company aims to contribute significantly in creating a robust mobility ecosystem in India.
oyota Mobility Foundation (TMF) has partnered with WRI India Ross Center for Sustainable Cities to initiate Station Access and Mobility Program or STAMP, the company has informed in a release.
It also says that through this initiative, the company aims to contribute significantly in creating a robust mobility ecosystem in India.
With India projected to add four new megacities by 2030 and its urban population expected to grow to 814 million by 2050, according to a UN report, demands for mobility solutions will increase significantly.
This will bring in many challenges like congestion and pollution, but conversely, it will create a great opportunity for OEM and innovators to develop viable and sustainable modes of transportation that will be cost-effective, convenient and easily accessible for all, claims the TMF in a release.
The joint initiative is claimed to be focusing on high-quality first and last-mile connectivity solutions to urban mass transit, namely the Metro.
This attempt will also support the government projects to enable mass transportation by increasing ridership and seamless mobility for the public.
TMF and WRI are also working closely with other mobility operators in India like Bounce, Mobycy, Bykerr, Quickride and Constapark.
Commenting on the initiative, Pras Ganesh, Program Director for Asia Region, TMF, said, “As the popularity of the urban transport is rising in India, it is imperative to develop economical, innovative and easily accessible solutions for last-mile connectivity towards achieving safe, sustainable mobility and decongested Indian cities."
He also said, "No real change can be achieved without including public participation and dialogue focusing on the core issues and finding a fitting solution. With our initiatives, we have been able to reinforce the importance of engaging communities by partnering with our mobility partners and formulating the mobility needs and viable solutions."
Ganesh also added, "We believe that sustainable transport system is a key driver of sustainable urban development. The positive response received from our partners including Government officials, key stakeholders, and our mobility start-up partners truly shows the common belief we all share and our vision to encourage innovation and an integrated and seamless mobility experience for the customers by building upon the initiatives of the government.”
