The structure of urban transportation and mobility is dramatically changing, partly due to the explosive growth in shared-use modes (SUM) of travel such as bikesharing, carsharing and, more recently, electronic (e-)scooter/ monowheels - sharing.

Abstract
The structure of urban transportation and mobility is dramatically changing, partly due to the explosive growth in shared-use modes (SUM) of travel such as bikesharing, carsharing and, more recently, electronic (e-)scooter/ monowheels - sharing. Municipal transport planners and policymakers are struggling to both understand and manage their potential impacts. Developing, adopting and enforcing regulations that aim to maximize transportation options while simultaneously ensuring public safety and the public good is proving to be a challenging task in such a time of fast evolution. According to the Italian regulations, electric scooters, hoverboards, segways and monowheels are allowed to circulate in urban areas, pedestrian/cycle paths and roads with a speed limit of 30 km/h. This study aims to select the suitable paths for the circulation of electric scooters, hoverboards, segways and monowheels within the municipal territory of Catania, applying Multi-Criteria Decision Aid approach.
