Another paradigm shift

fair

healthy

The street space is for different

users. Mobility remains fair and
sustainable mobility and
affordable for all.

The proportion of active mobility

in everyday life will be higher, the
accidents will be lower.

together

compact
The distances between work,
home, errands and leisure are as
short as possible.

robust
The mobility is as reliable and
crisis-proof. Mobility is possible
without the possession of means
of transport - "use instead have".

on the

move

sustainable
Minimize environmental pollution
caused by mobility. Green mobility is
rising in the city and the region.

efficient
Resources are used efficiently
through the use of innovative
technologies and processes.
