#intermodality
The Dutch mobility system isn't just built around cycling.

It's built around bike-train intermodality: cycling solves the train's convenience problem and the train solves cycling's range problem. Together, they offer an attractive alternative to driving on a mass scale.

Bike-transit intermodality can come in many different shapes and sizes.

Today, it involved taking the LAX FlyAway Bus from the Airport to Union Station, and then hopping on a shared electric bike to pedal the last mile on Downtown Los Angeles’ growing network of protected lanes.

Miami is exploring ways to unlock Dutch-style intermodality; utilizing cycling as a tool to increase transit ridership and decrease car dependency.

Combining these two modes improves access to employment, contributes to healthier lifestyles, reduces household costs, and increases transport choices.

Intermodality, including walking, needs to be front and centre of any infrastructure planning process, not just multimodality.

In de EU zet men nu ook sterk in op zulke 'intermodality' voor verduurzaming van aanbod in toerisme en transport. #BetrouwbareBronnen duikt erin met Brusselse topexperts. omny.fm/shows/betrou...

The Netherlands is investing €1 billion in cycling infrastructure to connect hundreds of thousands of new homes nationwide. These funds will build bike highways and improve bike-train intermodality, enabling residents to access jobs, healthcare and education without being locked into car dependency.

Rail nationalization in 1905 kicked off a host of steady improvements such as electrification, double- and quad-tracking, better signaling, straightening track geometry, grade separation, station platform extensions, new rolling stock, and intermodality.

The new Redondo Beach Transit Center that opened in early 2023 is located by the Metro ROW alignment for the C Line Extension to Torrance!! There goes intermodality.. 🫠

Bike-train intermodality can come in various shapes, sizes and speeds.

Today, it entailed rocketing out of Shanghai on a CRH (China Railway High-speed) train at 350 km/hr, and then hopping on a pedal-assist shared bike and rolling comfortably through Kunshan along a three-metre-wide protected lane.

Would love for our infrastructure in the U.S. to be built around bike-train intermodality than Waymos.

Bike-train intermodality can come in many different forms.

In Beijing, it means pedaling to and/or from one of 523 subway stations on one of 955,000 shared bicycles—which are used 3.6 million times each day and 950 million times each year—with over 70% of those trips connecting to public transport.

This is what real intermodality looks like — seamless, sustainable, and user-friendly. Hope Ukraine follows soon: bikes on trains should be the norm, not a niche.

[1/8] Le 3 septembre 2026, Modal Group ouvre une liaison de ferroutage Dunkerque-Lyon-Piacenza à raison de 3 trains / semaine. Ce nvel axe relie une façade maritime majeure du nord de l’Europe au corridor rhodanien puis à l’Italie du Nord et renforce l’arrière-pays du port. #geography #intermodality

i kinda get why they're popular; theyre infinitely more portable than ebikes and cheaper than folding ebikes (which are still not that portable). and in regions without good intermodality infra, they can work a lot better than a bike does.

Two weeks ahead of the 2025 Velo-city conference, Chris is in Gdańsk to lead a ThinkBike Workshop for @dutchcycling.nl on bike-train intermodality.

Using the proposed Południe rail line as a case study, the three-day program will include contributions from NS (Dutch Railways), Movares and TU Delft.

This week, the Dutch Cycling Embassy was in Gdańsk to host a ThinkBike Workshop on bike-train intermodality. Using the Południe rail line as a case study, the program included contributions from NS (Dutch Railways), Movares, and TU Delft, and was financed by the Metropole, InvestGDA, and NL Embassy.

There's also almost no intermodality. I just visited my stepmother in Marietta, OH. My options from NYC were: drive maybe 7 hrs, fly to CMH or PIT and rent a car, drive 2 or 2.5 hrs, fly to CMH and take a bus for 3.5 hours, or train to Pittsburgh where I can't rent a car at the station.

Travel associated with tourism comes with negative impacts, particularly on greenhouse gas emissions. Integrated public transport, centred on rail hubs, is key to sustainability of tourism.

New study proposes a framework for assessing which stations have highest potential to be active tourism hubs
Active Tourism and Intermodality: Railway Stations as Soft Mobility Hubs—An Assessment Framework for Italy
Since tourism involves the movement of people, mobility and tourism are deeply interconnected, with mutual growth dynamics but also shared negative effects, such as greenhouse gas emissions. Among the...
