The document discusses the growing problem of urban congestion as more people move to cities. It notes that by 2050, 68% of the world's population will live in cities, up from 55% today. Several US cities are highlighted that lose significant time and money to traffic congestion each year, with New York City losing over $9 billion annually. The document advocates that cities adopt a "mobility strategy" to better coordinate different transportation options like public transit, ride-hailing, parking, and scooters/bikes, in order to empower citizens and reduce congestion compared to an enforcement-only approach. It notes a mobility app could help cities optimize curb space and facilitate multimodal trip planning and payments.
