Surf Road: A Fusion of Personal and Shared Mobility for Seamless Urban Experience

초록

As personal mobility (PM) ridership surges, contemporary urban planning focuses heavily on dedicating isolated lanes, often overlooking the continuity of the seamless transit experience. To address these fragmented transfer points between public transit and micro-mobility, this paper introduces Surf Road', a novel paradigm in urban transportation. While modern cities are physically connected, a rider's journey is often abruptly disrupted at the boundaries of macro-infrastructure. Accompanied by a video demonstration, we present a symbiotic PM system that organically docks with moving tram networks, transforming a stagnant commute into a playful, continuous "urban surfing"experience. Without requiring prohibitive infrastructure overhauls, Surf Road seamlessly coexists with existing transit grids to deliver a high-continuity user experience (UX), offering a futuristic framework for human-infrastructure symbiosis. © 2026 Copyright held by the owner/author(s).
