Shared Mobility
Shared Mobility Consulting Services | Sustainable Urban & Rural Mobility
Shared mobility is transforming how people move in cities and regions across the Netherlands and Europe. As a leading expert in sustainable transport, Cenex Nederland (part of the Cenex group, alongside Cenex UK), helps public and private organisations unlock the benefits of shared mobility—reducing emissions, congestion, and costs while improving access, flexibility and public space.
Why Shared Mobility Matters
The Netherlands is a pioneer in shared mobility, with strong government support, innovative pilots, and a growing ecosystem of car, bike, and e-moped sharing, and Mobility as a Service (MaaS) platforms.

Frequently Asked Questions
Shared mobility refers to transport services that are shared among users, either at the same time or sequentially, often facilitated by digital platforms. Examples are car and bike sharing, or on-demand shuttle services. Users usually access the vehicles via a digital platform, offering on demand and flexible access.
Implementation involves feasibility studies, stakeholder engagement, integration with public transport, and pilot projects. Cenex Nederland provides end-to-end support for every stage.
Benefits include public benefits like reduced congestion, lower emissions, and liveable cities and regions, and user benefits like improved accessibility and flexibility and possible cost savings.
Challenges include lower population density, limited public transport, and funding. Cenex Nederland develops tailored solutions for rural and peri-urban contexts.
While a dedicated shared mobility tool is in development, we leverage data-driven platforms such as cenex-tools.io for scenario analysis and planning. An emission reduction estimation tool for shared mobility is available on the platform, which can be used by cities and operators to estimate the reduction in CO2 and NOx and PM emissions due to different shared modes.
