DESCRIPTION:Equitable access to essential destinations remains a persisten
 t challenge\, as one in nine Dutch residents sometimes has difficulty reac
 hing work\, education\, healthcare\, or supermarkets. In urban outskirts\,
  accessibility deficiency is particularly pronounced due to dispersed land
  use and fragmented active mobility networks. Shared bikes are often propo
 sed as inclusive accessibility solutions. However\, shared bike users are 
 not representative of society\, with an overrepresentation of young\, high
 er-income\, and male users. To understand whether shared bikes can reduce 
 accessibility deficiency\, a bottom-up approach is needed. Although top-do
 wn approaches are more common\, the aggregated data leaves out important d
 etails. The person-based bottom-up approach can uncover barriers to shared
 -bike use and assess whether overcoming these barriers can reduce accessib
 ility deficiency.\nThis study investigates the relationship between shared
 -bike enablers\, the capability to use a shared bike\, and accessibility d
 eficiency. Enablers are the opposite of a barrier\, creating the opportuni
 ty to use a shared bike. Capabilities are calculated based on enabling res
 ources (e.g.\, bike ownership) and enabling conversion factors (e.g.\, saf
 ety perception\, cycling skills\, technological literacy). Regression anal
 yses quantify the relationship between these calculated capabilities and a
 ccessibility deficiency. Semi-structured interviews\, focus groups\, and p
 articipatory workshops provide qualitative insights\, connecting calculate
 d metrics to residents’ lived experiences and perceptions of shared-bike
  solutions.\nThis research makes two contributions. First\, it contributes
  to equitable mobility planning by revealing the potential role of shared 
 bikes in reducing accessibility deficiency. Second\, it contributes method
 ologically by operationalising the Capability Approach as a person-based\,
  sufficiency-focused measure of accessibility. By combining person-based m
 odels with participatory qualitative methods\, this research offers a nuan
 ced and human-centred perspective on mobility planning.
