Abstract

The INDMOB research project examines, through a rigorous methodological approach based on the analysis of collected data and the examination of mobility trends (among 24,577 surveyed individuals), the evolution of travel habits among the Ticino population and Italian cross-border workers employed in the Canton of Ticino between 2019 and 2023. Specifically, the analysis focused on the effects on the population's daily travel choices following the inauguration of the Ceneri Base Tunnel (GBT) and the implementation of the public transport service (TP 2021). The project aims to provide the Ticino Department of Territory (DT), the study's sponsor, with accurate results on current (autumn 2023) and past (autumn 2019) mobility trends and the resulting changes in population habits, in order to guide future policies and interventions in the field of sustainable mobility. The analysis considered all travel modes, from active mobility to public transport by road and rail, and even private vehicles.

Public transport

Public transport (also known as public transportation, public transit, mass transit, or simply transit) is a system of transport for passengers by group travel systems available for use by the general public unlike private transport, typically managed on a schedule, operated on established routes, and that charge a posted fee for each trip. There is no rigid definition of which kinds of transport are included, and air travel is often not thought of when discussing public transport—dictionaries use wording like "buses, trains, etc.

Free public transport

Free public transport, often called fare-free public transit or zero-fare public transport, refers to public transport funded in full by means other than by collecting fares from passengers. It may be funded by national, regional or local government through taxation, or by commercial sponsorship by businesses. Alternatively, the concept of "free-ness" may take other forms, such as no-fare access via a card which may or may not be paid for in its entirety by the user.

Social mobility

Social mobility is the movement of individuals, families, households or other categories of people within or between social strata in a society. It is a change in social status relative to one's current social location within a given society. This movement occurs between layers or tiers in an open system of social stratification. Open stratification systems are those in which at least some value is given to achieved status characteristics in a society. The movement can be in a downward or upward direction.
