Abstract
The “MyFairShare” project develops fair CO2 mobility budgets for individuals. Here, “fairness” mainly depends on the people’s location as everyone should be capable to access all the destinations needed to perform everyday tasks. As such, a basic understanding about the accessibility within an area is needed, regarding all activities that must be performed. To achieve this, a software system for benchmarking areas has been developed. It is based on open source applications and uses data that – besides public transport data in GTFS format – is freely available throughout Europe. This paper introduces this application and shows some first results. They show that even in major European cities and regions the locations of everyday actions cannot be accessed within 15 minutes for most of the population.

Abstract
Mobility budgets dictate the limit of CO2 per capita, which is calculated based on the mode of travel and distance. Mobility budgets are one of the final goals of the optimisation of transportation network, when the aspects of fairness and equity are considered. The main problem arises when we focus on multiple criteria of fairness and equity. In addition, it was observed that any drastic change in behaviour leads to inadequate initial parametrisation, especially under the effects of COVID-19. This can also mean that optimising transportation network according to class-to-be is most likely to cause behaviour changes in relation to the use of public transport. The aim of this article is to define the structure of optimisation task, based on mobility budget provided on a monthly basis. This research was based on public transportation data and mobile activity data. The former was used to determine the usage of public transport during 2017 and 2022, while the latter provided enough information to determine exactly how COVID-19 affected the behaviour of city districts and provide concrete information regarding necessary re-planning measures for public transportation station locations. In result, the optimisation solution was proposed by defining case-specific objective functions and constraints.

MyFairShare Discussion Paper Towards understanding potential rebounds and problem-shifts for MyFairShare
Authors: Barbara Plank, Willi Haas, Dominik Wiedenhofer; University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences Vienna – BOKU
Rationale
Understanding potential rebounds and problem-shifts due to the various measures tested in the LivingLabs (LL) and the modelling requires clear definitions of system boundaries and activities/processes investigated. Herein, we provide several short conceptual summaries on key concepts, a generalized systems definition and a structure for the LivingLabs and the modelling to define and locate their research scopes within that generalized definition.

MyFairShare Working Paper Enabling sufficiency: towards an actionable concept of fairness in mobility and accessibility
Author: Philipp Rode, LSE Cities, London School of Economics and Political Science
Abstract
This working paper presents the outcome of activities that were conducted as part of the MyFairShare Task 2.1 “Towards an actionable concept of fairness in mobility and accessibility”. It introduces a rationale for focusing on and assigning budgets for transport-related carbon emissions, establishes the boundaries of a justice domain for mobility budgets, and touches on some initial aspects of the required information base and data requirements. Its main contribution is a conceptual framework for fairness in the context of mobility and accessibility. Finally, the paper also addresses one aspect of Task 2.5 “Development of context-specific pilots” by introducing a decision approach for defining the general approach for each of the MyFairShare Living Labs.

Abstract
Transport justice has two essential dimensions: (1) compensating for inequalities in access to mobility, and (2) mitigating the disproportionately burdensome negative consequences of transport. In light of the urgently needed action regarding climate change especially in the transport sector, measures reducing carbon emissions to mitigate the impact are inevitable. However, policy measures for reaching climate targets should avoid increasing unequal mobility chances. Therefore, there is a need for concepts striving to mitigate both climate impacts and transport injustice. The paper addresses the potential of introducing individual mobility budgets to achieve transport-related climate goals while reducing inequalities in mobility. The concept proposed in this contribution is based on a combination of qualitative and quantitative impact assessment methods including a stakeholder involvement process and transport modelling based on different data sources. The results provide policy recommendations as well as further research requirements, which are already partly addressed iin follow-up projects.
