Transport authorities in urban areas were forced to adjust services in spring 2020 to the mobility limitations and restrictions applied to the different means of transport. Bus, underground and metropolitan railway services registered significant falls in the amount of passengers due to vehicle occupancy limits, curfews and shutdowns of non-essential economic activities. In addition, public bicycle schemes were suspended, subsidies for the purchase of bicycles and scooters were awarded, and free parking spaces were provided in public areas that previously required payment due to the rise in the use of private vehicles. Lastly, the existing network of bus and bicycle lanes was extended and more streets were designated as pedestrian-only (Báguena, 2020).
