City and state governments worldwide are struggling to achieve environmentally sustainable transport. Until now, it has been assumed that transport ownership can only be public or private.

This book claims that communal ownership provides unique opportunities for providing personal mobility. Community ownership is explored through the new 'sharing economy' developments - car sharing, ridesharing and bicycle share schemes - and older social innovations in eco-villages and communal living. Models and practices of community ownership of transport are given and it also discusses how community ownership might contribute to sustainable transport.
