France's Mobility Guidance Law
- France
The Mobility Guidance Law aims to enhance overall service quality, ensure a seamless user journey, and promote innovative multimodal information services. The policy mandates preferential fares for public transport and unrestricted access to adapted services, eliminating residence or medical evaluation barriers. Publicly available data on accessibility facilitates the development of inclusive GPS and route calculators. Guarantees for accessibility in parking spaces and railway assistance reservations further contribute to a more inclusive transportation landscape, with periodic reports ensuring transparency in the ongoing progress of network accessibility.
Key Objectives
- Providing the opportunity to book transport service on demand reserved for people with reduced mobility, also for non-residents
- Imposing reduced prices for people with reduced mobility and their companions
- Imposing that data on the accessibility of establishments servicing the public, priority stops, and the surrounding area of priority stops be open-sourced
