Barriers to innovation for New Mobility Services (NMS) are considered from different disciplines and points of view. The focus is usually on individual types of NMS. To date, a holistic view of NMS for the Austrian legal framework and organisational structures is still missing. However, superordinate questions are relevant, such as the availability of cross-NMS infrastructure requirements (e.g. mobility hubs), the networking possibilities of NMS with each other (e.g. through Mobility as a Service - MaaS), but also the linking with existing structures (especially public transport, but also living and working).

How do these system integrations affect the innovation development and market diffusion of NMS?
This requires a holistic approach and a transdisciplinary, systematised and structured review of the barriers to innovation that have been recorded so far, in order to build on and analyse the superordinate questions of system integration as a barrier to innovation.

The project's objective is, on the basis of this holistic view, the development of a compendium to be updated as a basis for the conception of a legal and organisational framework that a) creates space for the development of further NMS, b) promotes the broad establishment of existing NMS on the market and c) ensures their establishment as a sensible and climate-effective supplement to existing public transport services.
