The COVID-19 pandemic, which has been ravaging the world since the beginning of 2020,
has greatly changed daily habits in terms of mobility, particularly in cities. The fear of
prolonged contact with other users on public transport, may cause great changes in citizens'
preferences towards transport in private vehicles, motorized or not, and sharing. The aim of
this study was to assess the changes in mobility habits based on an online survey in Gijón
(Spain) taken at the end of summer 2020, after the first wave, and generation of the socalled
“new normality”. This document presents a preview of the main results, related to
the vehicles most used by Gijon’s population. The results have allowed us to observe an
increase in the use of private vehicles and, consequently, decrease in use of the bus. In
addition, the survey sample also demonstrated the scant insertion of PMVs, motorcycles
and bicycles in citizens’ preferences. Finally, they also showed gender and age differences
in urban mobility.
