This document discusses inclusive mobility in Metro Manila and explores business and social enterprise models that can promote inclusive transportation. It begins by defining concepts of inclusive mobility and how mobility needs to work for vulnerable groups. The document then analyzes the current transportation challenges in Metro Manila, particularly for the poor and vulnerable, such as high costs and long travel times. It presents a framework to analyze potential inclusive mobility models based on how they benefit various sectors. Examples of international models that increase access to transportation for rural areas are also provided. The goal is to identify solutions that can be replicated or scaled up to improve mobility for all in Metro Manila.

replication and scaling up inclusive mobility innovations?
10. State of Transportation in Metro Manila
• Market Analysis
– Private motor vehicles contributes to 53.2% of all
traffic composition but caters only to 21.6 of
transport demand
• Economics
– Incurred losses of P140-B annually due to wastage
of fuel and loss of productivity.
• Infrastructural
– Absence of proper road infrastructures.
– Commercial developments placed along major roads
creating bottlenecks.
11. State of Transportation in Metro Manila
• Health and Safety
– Increasing road safety issues – accidents, casualties,
deaths
• Environment
– Road congestion due to increase in number of
private cars contribute to air pollution
– Road transport GHG emissions: 253,613 tons CO2e
(Makati City alone, base year 2010)
12. Mobility Challenges of the Poor and the
Vulnerable Sectors
Cost (Poor)
– No choice/alternative modes, Need-basis
– Public transportation is cheapest
Cost (Vulnerable)
– Affordability depends on the economic standing of
the person
– Limited incentives (discounts) for vulnerable groups
– e.g. PWDs
13. Mobility Challenges of the Poor and the
Vulnerable Sectors
Length of travel (Poor)
– Attributed to long travel hours
– The poor do not have alternatives with regards to
their travel routes
Length of travel (Vulnerable)
– Even more problematic due to their constraints (e.g.
physical) – limited travel options
– Longer travel time: lack of facility to aid their
mobility
14. Mobility Challenges of the Poor and the
Vulnerable Sectors
Challenges in terms of access to basic goods and
Services
– Not due to lack of transport modes, but in
terms of the cost of goods itself (indirect
influence due to cost of transport)

39. Barriers
• Policies
– Institutional regulations and structures are mainly
government or public sector dependent.
– Laws that exist provide limited flexibility to address
mobility problems of the poor and the vulnerable.
– Regulatory mechanisms: vehicle registration, traffic rules
and other forms of transport-related policies do exist,
these do not entirely present solutions to managing
mobility issues
– CLUP – use and allocation of land
• Economics
– Limited financial, economic incentives (taxes, financing
schemes)
40. Barriers
• Cultural
– Shift in mindset - culture of individualized mobility
– Construction of car-ownership as a form of status symbol
• Developmental
– Absence of proper road infrastructures
– Commercialization, private-sector led – fragmented
urban design and planning
