The rising demand for ride-sharing services is projected to stimulate the expansion of the transit and ground passenger transportation markets. Ride-sharing services are platforms designed to connect individuals looking for rides with drivers who use their personal vehicles for transport. Transit and ground passenger transportation offerings support ride-sharing by supplying essential first- and last-mile connections, thereby making ride-sharing options more accessible and usable for passengers and boosting overall mobility and transportation efficiency. As an illustration, in February 2024, Uber Technologies, Inc., a US-based ride-hailing and mobility technology company, reported around 2.6 billion trips on its platform during the fourth quarter of 2023. This figure indicated a 24 percent year-on-year increase, averaging approximately 28 million trips per day.
