Pourquoi posséder quand on peut tout partager.
C’est cette maxime que met en place la ville de Helsinski pour ses transports : habitez la ville, payez au forfait ou à la consommation et vous accédez librement aux vélos, bus, tram, parking, et voiture de la ville. Le tout coordonné par votre téléphone.
Ten years from now, transportation in Helsinki may operate very differently from the current system.
The service will be run by transportation operators, through which the regular citizen can buy all they want with a click. This does not only entail public transportation within the city, but also carpool, taxi, a train ticket to Tampere or parking fees in the city centre.
Few want to own their own car in future, when everything can be shared. If one wishes to travel from Puotila to Pukinmäki, the « route planner » of 2025 will provide information on where to change the city bike for a car due to impending rain, in addition to information on the fastest connection.
The City of Helsinki believes in the model so strongly that it plans to test it at the turn of the year with a few major employers in Vallila. Employers are being persuaded to join in by building a platform that enables employees to buy transportation services with their own funds.
