Mobility

As a founding member of the Association Europäische Metropolregion München and its preceding organisations we have been working for many years actively on the most varied of topics relevant to metropolitan regions. One of these is, for example, mobility: in order to make life easier for our commuters who need to travel beyond the boundaries of the individual traffic companies, we have, among other activities, cooperated on the AboPlusCard project of the Munich Metropolitan Region.”

Accessibility atlas for the Metropolitan Region

Good international and internal accessibility is of central importance for the functioning of metropolitan regions. The project “EMM-Accessibility atlas” is concerning itself with this subject and will demonstrate the strengths and weaknesses of accessibility in the Region.

EMM-Ticket

The sub-working group EMM-Ticket is developing innovative concepts for the coordination of public transport tariffs within the EMM. Since 2009 an AboPlusCard has been making it possible for commuters to travel throughout the entire metropolitan region with just one single ticket.

Main railway stations as gateways

The main railway stations in the EMM form the interface between long-distance traffic (Trans-European networks) on the one hand and regional and local traffic on the other. In addition to this function as traffic interfaces, stations also posses above all a particular significance for the development of a city.

Railway traffic and networks of tracks

The optimal integration of the EMM in the European high-speed rail network is the highest priority of the working group Mobility. The aims are the promotion of the TEN-Magistrale trains Paris - Munich - Bratislava and their links with the Metropolitan and Alpine Regions.

Economic and commuter traffic

Under the leadership of the IHK (chamber of industry and commerce) for Munich and Upper Bavaria and the ADAC of South Bavaria this sub-working group is concerning itself with the creation of prerequisites for a functioning economic and commuter traffic system.

Mobility oft the future

The sub-working group research and development serves the exchange of know-how and information in the acquisition of funds in addition to investment measures. In addition the topics "Electro-mobility" and "Regional Mobility Management” are being dealt with.
