SENSARE: Sensor-based urban area analysis for heavy rain hazards<\/h3>

Climate change also poses major and new challenges for transport. Cities are already increasingly confronted with extreme weather. In the case of heavy rain, severe flooding can occur locally \u2013 with corresponding effects on traffic \u2013 making it all the more important to be prepared for this in the future. This is precisely where the SENSARE pilot project comes in: the real-time warning system measures the current water level with various sensors on the roads, in the canal system as well as in manhole covers. These sensors pass the data on to a digital platform where the values are compared with previously created simulations. Here, emergency services, infrastructure companies and the city administration can view this information in good time. SENSARE thus improves the ability to act in the event of sudden flooding and thus significantly strengthens the transport of the future.<\/p>\n

Adaptive City Mobility (ACM): The e-mobility solution for urban fleet operators<\/h3>

Worldwide, fleet operators of electric vehicles are struggling with a number of challenges, including a lack of affordable and clean mobility, range limitation of vehicles or excessive costs for upgrading the power grid. The ACM project has developed a holistic e-mobility system as a solution approach for fleet operators in cities: a multifunctional B2B fleet vehicle can be rented by several fleet customers via the ACM sharing platform as well as used in different applications such as taxi, sharing, logistics and tourism. Through B2B sharing, ACM replaces private vehicles in cities. The energy solution used ties in with the existing infrastructure of cities \u2013 which is why the electric vehicles can be used immediately around the world without the need for further expansion of the power grid.<\/p>\n

Simple, convenient and environmentally friendly \u2013 \u201con-demand mobility for the Frankfurt\/Rhine-Main region\u201d combines classic public transport with offers of digitally driven, new mobility. It thus creates real added value for the passenger: gaps in public transport services are closed with emission-free vehicles and more sustainable mobility is made possible. This means that up to 1.8 million people in the metropolitan region will receive an environmentally friendly and digital supplement to public transport on the first and last mile. The project enables attractive, digital public transport in suburban and rural areas and thereby reduces NO2 production.<\/p>\n

Association-wide mobile station network in the Rhineland<\/h3>

For more and more municipalities, mobile stations are the first step towards solving transport problems. By connecting at least two or more modes of transport, they make it easier to switch from one to another, thus encouraging the shift away from cars towards more environmentally friendly alternatives. The goal of accelerating the expansion of the mobile station network is made possible by Nahverkehr Rheinland (NVR) through a mobile station concept that it provides to municipalities. In cooperation with the Zukunftsnetz Mobilit\u00e4t NRW, municipalities are supported and enabled to plan and implement their own mobile stations through coordination, advice, information offers and resources (workshops, framework contracts for equipment elements, etc.). Uniform standards are used and funding is made available. In autumn 2022, the 100th mobile station will be opened through this holistic approach \u2013 and it is already being adapted by other special-purpose associations in North Rhine-Westphalia.<\/p>\n

citizen mobility \u2013 UMPARKEN: Mulimodal mobility solutions<\/h3>

Multimodal mobility solutions Urban mobility occasionally reaches its capacity limits. In order to avoid high CO2 and noise emissions in the future and also to ensure safety and a low land consumption of mobility, we have to rethink the way we get around. In the UMPARKEN project, eight households swap their cars for a mobility budget of 300 euros for four weeks and switch to multimodal solutions. The parking space freed up in this exchange is redesigned for alternative use in the interests of the residents. The pilot project, which saw the participation of citizens, municipalities, science, business and start-ups, provided important insights into the potentials and challenges of multimodal mobility and living without a car.<\/p>\n

Pragmatic, Nordic, green: the eFarm joint project initiated by GP JOULE is located in the district of North Friesland. The largest sustainable hydrogen mobility project in Germany relies on regeneratively produced, green hydrogen. The principles behind it come from agriculture, namely diversity over monoculture, optimal synergy over optimal individual use and, above all, holistic thinking: generation, distribution and use are thought of together. Hydrogen is produced from surplus wind power in five electrolysers. Two filling stations supply two fuel cell buses and 30 cars. About 3,000 people are involved in the project through the 20 shareholders. The eFarm shows us that community-based, sustainable management is possible and that emission-free, local transport benefits everyone \u2013 both people and the environment.<\/p>\n

e.Volution: The commuter shuttle system<\/h3>

e.Volution is a shuttle system for commuters that reduces car traffic at peak times. Employers can make it available to their employees for free rides. The corporate shuttle combines increasing commuter traffic, space saving, energy saving and C02 reduction, while at the same time offering people an individualised, comfortable and flexible driving experience. If it is possible to transport an average of five people to work in the shuttles, which can hold up to seven people, the system will mean five private cars are no longer on the roads. This will save 80 per cent space and reduce C02 emissions by 25 per cent. The META shuttle is a barrier-free electric Circular Economy vehicle that has an especially long service life and was developed in such a way that its production is extremely resource efficient. In the start-up phase, e.Volution is cooperating with Telekom at the Bonn site, with the Aachen city region at the Merzbr\u00fcck site, with the Coesfeld district in M\u00fcnsterland and with the city of Bochum at the Mark 51\u00b07 site (formerly the Opel plant).<\/p>\n

Our cities are becoming more and more crowded, and the space available in them increasingly scarce. The German-Israeli microcar project City Transformer has developed the all-electric microcar CT-1, which takes into account the realities of inner-city traffic. CT-1 is an all-electric microcar with two seats on four wheels that can reduce its track width from 1.4 metres to 1 metre at the push of a button. This makes the CT-1 easy to park, easy to handle and a smart solution for congested inner cities with a notorious lack of parking space. In addition, fewer resources are required for its production and maintenance compared to conventional electric cars. This allows users to minimise their ecological footprint in traffic without sacrificing comfort and safety.<\/p>\n

To address this, the Transport Data Commons Initiative was jointly founded in May 2022 by 18 organisations based all over the world. The goal of the project is to capture the connection between transport and climate. At this point, the initiative is therefore initially focusing on reporting data from the transport sector that is needed to derive the sector\u2019s greenhouse gas emissions. The vision behind the project is to develop a common and open source data platform that can be accessed and used by all. The purposes behind it can be different: they include evidence-based neighbourhood improvement, modelling greenhouse gas emissions for rural or urban areas, and considering which transport mode mix will improve air quality and other environmental impacts.<\/p>\r\n\t\tVote now<\/span>\r\n\t\tVote now<\/span>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Most cities lack an infrastructure that makes cycling a pleasant and comfortable transport experience. In order to promote this sustainable means of transport in a future-oriented way, it is necessary to consistently focus infrastructure construction on perceived and subjective safety. However, up to now there has been no data on precisely this. The VelObserver project therefore collects this data using a unique approach across the board and through crowdsourcing in the city of Zurich. Cyclists give their opinion on their personal feelings for different segments. In this way, over 40,000 assessments have been recorded in recent months, which also make progress visible and serve the city of Zurich as a planning basis for the further development of the bicycle network.<\/p>\n

Second Ride: Electrify your moped<\/h3>

With Second Ride, users with a moped from cult brand \u201cSimson\u201d can use a conversion kit to convert their vehicle\u2019s combustion engine to an electric motor. Only the drive train is replaced; structural and body parts as well as interior fittings are reused according to the principles of a circular economy. The conversion makes electric mobility more ecologically, economically and socially sustainable. Co-founder and inventor Carlo Schmid is responsible for the technical development and has led the conversion kit to T\u00dcV certification and road approval.<\/p>\n

Powerb\u00e4nk: Battery charging for electric vehicles via app<\/h3>

For some years now, e-mobility and electric vehicles have been gaining in importance for private users. However, the number of publicly accessible charging stations is far from sufficient to meet the demand. In addition, not all private users have the possibility to charge their electric vehicles at home.
\nThis is where the project comes in: Powerb\u00e4nk offers to order a battery charge for the private electric vehicle via app. After ordering, a mobile battery pack is delivered to the location of the electric vehicle, connected and collected again after a successful charging process. The project thus offers solutions to various problems of electric traffic in the city: mobile charging can drastically reduce the search for charging stations and have a significant positive impact on urban traffic flow.<\/p>\n

Sunglider Smart Uberground Metro: The future rides on the solar track<\/h3>

What could the public transport of the future look like? The Sunglider Smart Uberground Metro project offers an answer to this question. Sunglider is a smart, 100 per cent photovoltaic-powered underground metro for medium-sized cities. The future-oriented model relies on self-driving, hovering gliders for people and goods as well as autonomous shuttles on the ground for the last mile. The Uberground Metro connects the city with the city ring and the old town, as well as with the surrounding towns and communities. In this way, metropolitan space and rural zones grow together to form the \u201cmezzopolis\u201d of the future. Glider stops offer narrow, space-saving island stops. In addition, mobility hubs, post depots, PV electricity charging points and wait-free transfer points for ground shuttles or metro-owned pedelecs and e-scooters are located on the ground.<\/p>\n

Parasite Parking: Intervention in public space<\/h3>

The Parasite Parking project is an intervention in public space: the multifunctional platform disguised as a parking space – the parasite – can transform itself at any time and flexibly adapt to its surroundings and use. The platform is an uninvited guest on the spaces that are available to all as part of society and yet are mostly occupied only by steel bodies of modernity. Parasite Parking de- and recodes public space. The parasite does not ask about ownership and its rules, but about the limits of the usability of public space and its formulas of mobile and flexible forms of use. It comes and goes, depending on how long it can inhabit a niche.<\/p>\n

Many municipalities that aim to expand their road networks and bicycle infrastructure face challenges such as lack of data, lengthy planning processes, and limited resources. The Bicycle Traffic Atlas makes it easier for them to get started. It automates the processing of OpenStreetMap data and presents it visually in thematic maps. These maps provide information about the urban area (including source and destination points), infrastructure, surface quality, and types of roads as the basis for bicycle network planning. The needs of residents regarding safety and route selection are also integrated. This allows for the development of a target network that can be viewed and updated at any time. The project demonstrates how open data and digitalization can significantly accelerate bicycle network planning with the help of the local population.<\/p>\n

The Murnau local bus service, known as omobi, was launched in the summer of 2020, making it one of the oldest on-demand transportation services in rural Germany. This local bus service provided an alternative to owning a private car, allowing people without cars to become mobile. The service was so well-received that some users even gave up their cars. Today, the local bus complements public transportation in three municipalities. The starting point and destination within the service area are freely selectable, with no fixed timetable or routes. Instead, a smart algorithm combines requests and creates routes based on real-time demand. Passengers with similar destinations share the ride, collectively reducing emissions. Those without smartphones can also book the local bus by phone and pay for the ride in cash.<\/p>\n

An unusual pairing: The goFLUX carpooling app connects traditional public transportation with motorized individual traffic (MIV) by making available empty seats in carpooling arrangements for public transportation. The unused resources of MIV are enormous: 70 percent of people commute to work by their own car, with nearly all of them traveling alone. Carpooling, on the other hand, is efficient, sustainable, and helps better connect suburban and rural areas. The carpooling app calculates the best route based on Google Maps, automatically matches drivers and passengers, and provides real-time public transportation data to facilitate transfers to buses and trains for the first or last mile. Anyone with a public transportation subscription can use carpooling services for free.<\/p>\n

The on-demand service sprinti covers areas in the Hannover region that are not served by regular bus routes, operating from early morning until late evening. sprinti enables flexible and demand-responsive mobility in rural areas. Booking is done through the sprinti app. Its algorithm checks if there are comparable regular bus connections \u2013 if not, it calculates the optimal route to transport multiple passengers to their respective destinations in the shortest time possible. Passengers then wait for a maximum of 20 minutes and walk a maximum of 150 meters to the virtual bus stop. A standard public transportation ticket is sufficient for the ride, with no additional charge. The vehicles are wheelchair accessible, and after registration, passengers can bring items such as walkers, bicycles, strollers, and child seats are also available.<\/p>\n

Registering Connections by Passengers via App<\/h3>

When a train is delayed, passengers often miss their connecting trains, even if it’s only a matter of a few minutes. Why? Many parties need to communicate and, from the perspective of the entire system, decide whether the connecting train can wait. The first problem: Train personnel are not always available everywhere and at all times to register a request for a connection. In Bavaria, passengers can now report their connection request themselves via an app. In the background, software manages the complex process and information chain from passengers to the transportation company and back. A future development will also integrate regional buses because reliable connections to them are especially crucial in rural areas. This makes it more appealing to leave the car behind.<\/p>\n

Thanks to “DB Rad+,” cycling now has double and triple benefits. With the app, you can track bike routes and use the kilometers you’ve ridden as currency at local businesses and with Deutsche Bahn (DB). The app also accumulates all the kilometers ridden in a communal account. When reaching specific milestones, there are rewards that benefit everyone. For example, DB opened a bike repair station in Hamburg or hosted a bike washing day in Wiesbaden. So, cycling is not just for personal benefit – every kilometer also counts for the community. Users can also donate their cycling data to the municipality. Municipalities can use a specially developed analysis tool to identify cycling hotspots and gain additional insights for traffic planning.<\/p>\n

Emotion Perception for (E-)Bicycle Safety and Mobility Comfort \u2013 ESSEM<\/h3>

ESSEM transforms emotions into data: Subjective perception – “Is this place dangerous?” – becomes objectively verifiable and aids in traffic planning. Here’s how it works: Participants record their skin conductivity, skin temperature, and geoposition while cycling using sensor wristbands and an app. They also answer standardized questions. The data reveal which locations are negatively perceived or avoided and why – municipalities can take corresponding actions. In the future, products and services for cyclists can also be evaluated based on their ability to reduce stress. The project aims to promote more cycling, fair distribution, and higher quality of public spaces.<\/p>\n

Intermodal Mobility meets Quantum & AI<\/h3>

Traditional routing algorithms do not take into account future route congestion and plan each route “selfishly,” without considering parallel requests – otherwise, it would take several minutes. However, Fujitsu’s optimization service enables collaborative routing in seconds, with comprehensive information and choices that allow for a more even utilization of public transportation and sharing services. Thanks to QIOS\/Digital Annealing – a bridge technology to quantum computing – and artificial intelligence techniques, real-time occupancy data from the entire transportation system, as well as historical data and queried transportation connections, can be analyzed, supplemented by data from studies, surveys, and simulations – all at breathtaking speed.<\/p>\n

Fundamental decisions in mobility planning are often made in municipalities based on gut feelings. The MobileCity app aims to change that. It makes the core functions of complex traffic models accessible – intuitively, like a game. Using the example of Karlsruhe, the app allows users to dynamically experience the effects and dependencies of various interventions in urban traffic on climate, quality of life, and finances up to 2050. These factual future scenarios are intended to make debates more vivid and informed, facilitate public participation, and support education at universities and colleges. The app is based on scientific simulation and analysis models, expert knowledge, and data from the city of Karlsruhe and is the only one in the world that runs a complete local traffic model on digital devices.<\/p>\n

The Berlin-Brandenburg Transport Association is expanding its information services with a new layer of information: occupancy data. These data are calculated based on real-time data from passenger counting devices and query data from the passenger information system. Additionally, in the SAFIRA project, user requirements, their subjective perception of occupancy, and their motivation for behavior changes are being researched. This project helps in several ways: Passengers can better plan their journeys and avoid overcrowded buses and trains.

Autonomous Bicycles (AuRa)<\/h3>

The AuRa project (Autonomous Bike) explores and develops the next generation of bike-sharing. The goal is autonomous cargo bikes that can be summoned to any location at any time via a mobile app. Once handed over to users, they are ridden like a “regular” bike. After use, the cargo bike autonomously returns to a maintenance station, moves to an area with anticipated high demand, or directly heads to the next user. AuRa uniquely combines the advantages of bicycles with the potentials of vehicle automation. As a complement to public transport on the first and last mile, it enables a seamless travel chain, which is also economically viable. This approach promotes genuine and sustainable door-to-door mobility.<\/p>\n

CargoSurfer \u2013 Digital Matching Platform for Unused Cargo Space in Passenger and Freight Transport<\/h3>

How can logistics be strengthened sustainably without adding extra vehicles? The solution lies in the more efficient use of cargo space in public transport and freight transport vehicles, which are on the road every day but are rarely fully utilized. The “CargoSurfer” makes available cargo space on already planned trips visible and bookable in real-time. This significantly reduces the effort for shippers. Businesses with available cargo space and transportation companies can generate additional revenue to reduce their transportation costs. The system also reduces traffic congestion through shipment bundling and efficient vehicle utilization, lowers CO2 emissions even with existing propulsion technologies, and optimizes driver deployment.<\/p>\n

There are no uniform standards for the design of bicycle streets. However, this is not the case in Offenbach. New starting and ending markings, pictograms, and safety separation strips can now be found on all bicycle streets there. To achieve this, an initial test route was established, for which designers from the HfG Offenbach developed several designs. These designs were then evaluated by citizens through an extensive written survey. The result aims to make bicycle streets visible, recognizable, and intuitive. It enhances traffic safety and demonstrates that mobility design bridges the gap between the transportation system and users.

Special Olympics, special App: For the Special Olympics World Games 2023 in Berlin, the Berlin-Brandenburg Transport Association (VBB) has released the “VBB easy” routing app. It is designed for people with learning disabilities or mobility limitations – and for anyone who desires an exceptionally user-friendly app for planning routes with buses and trains. The app is presented in simple language and is easy to understand intuitively. The schedule information shows barrier-free routes. This offering is complemented by the “VBB GuideMeGo” app, which provides live video assistance on the go. Both apps simplify access to self-determined mobility and promote an inclusive society.<\/p>\n

VePa Vertical Parking<\/h3>

New construction often requires parking spaces for cars, which can complicate projects and harm the environment and climate. The VePa Parking Tower is the solution: It provides space for up to 12 cars on an area of only 45 square meters, with platforms that rotate around like a paternoster elevator. During construction, much less concrete is needed, reducing the CO2 footprint per parking space by up to 98 percent. The energy for the efficient electric motor can be generated with a photovoltaic system. The modular construction allows for quick assembly, disassembly, or relocation. Additionally, the tower can be expanded into a mobility hub, with parking spaces for bicycles, shared and micro-mobility options, and electric charging infrastructure. This frees up even more urban space for car-free zones or new green areas.<\/p>\n
