The role of transportation network companies (TNCs) in the urban transport system is under intense debate. In this study, we systematically assess three aspects of the net impacts of TNCs on urban mobility in the United States—road congestion, transit ridership and private vehicle ownership—and examine how these impacts have evolved over time. Based on a set of fixed-effect panel models estimated using metropolitan statistical area level data, we find that the entrance of TNCs led to increased road congestion in terms of both intensity (by 0.9%) and duration (by 4.5%), an 8.9% decline in transit ridership and an insignificant change in vehicle ownership. Despite the ideal of providing a sustainable mobility solution by promoting large-scale car sharing, our analysis suggests that TNCs have intensified urban transport challenges since their debut in the United States.

交通网络公司对城市交通的影响

交通网络公司(TNC)在城市交通系统中的作用正在激烈辩论。在这项研究中,我们系统地评估了跨国公司对美国城市交通的净影响的三个方面,即道路拥挤,过境通行和私人车辆拥有权,并研究了这些影响是如何随着时间演变的。基于使用大都市统计区域水平数据估计的一组固定效果面板模型,我们发现跨国公司的进入导致道路拥堵在强度(降低0.9%)和持续时间(降低4.5%)方面增加,为8.9公交乘车人数下降了%,车辆拥有量也没有太大变化。尽管理想的做法是通过促进大规模的汽车共享来提供可持续的出行解决方案,
