Abstract
This thesis has investigated and explored the implementation of integrated and future-proof mobility hubs in the city of Eindhoven. This has been investigated through multi-level dynamics based on the MLP framework by Geels (2006). This MLP framework consists of three levels: landscape, regime and niche. The thesis aimed to answer the main research question: Which challenges and opportunities shape the transition towards the implementation of integrated and future-proof mobility hubs in Eindhoven through an understanding of Multi-Level dynamics? At the landscape level, dynamics such as climate change, digitalisation and overarching societal challenges were studied. The regime level has investigated the interactions and cooperation between governmental levels involved in the implementation of mobility hubs. These governmental levels are national, provincial and municipal. The users and inhabitants are also part of the regime level. They are influenced by the dominant top-down planning. At the niche level, technologies such as the further electrification of vehicles as well as the implementation of shared mobility options will contribute to the future-proofness of mobility hubs. This analysis has revealed that Eindhoven is very well positioned, however, the governmental barriers and the needs and behaviour of users and inhabitants remain obstacles in the implementation process.
