Exploring influence mechanism of bikesharing on the use of public transportation — a case of Shanghai

Abstract

Given the vital role of public transportation in major cities, understanding the influence mechanism of bikesharing use on public transportation is necessary. In this study, we adopt the propensity score matching method to analyze the influence mechanism of bikesharing on the use of public transportation based on a data set in Shanghai. We find no significant influence of bikesharing on the use-frequency of public transportation, but a significant influence on the use-duration of public transportation. A grouping model is established based on gender, physical condition, private bike ownership, private car ownership, private electric bike ownership, and educational background. It is revealed that the use of bikesharing by the group with a private bike or a private electric bike, the group without a bachelor’s degree, the group in physical condition under sub-healthy may increase the use-duration of public transportation.
