Digitalization is revolutionizing transport and enabling more efficient, safer and more environmentally friendly mobility. Technologies such as connected driving, intelligent traffic management systems and digital platforms are making traffic more efficient and creating new mobility solutions. The Hamburg Digital Mobility Strategy aims to further advance the mobility revolution in Hamburg.
Auf einen Blick
- By 2030, 80% of trips in Hamburg are to be made using eco-friendly modes of transportation (walking, cycling, public transit).
- Supplementing public transportation with autonomous on-demand and sharing services.
- Development and implementation of an overarching, multimodal, intelligent traffic management system.
The Digital Mobility Strategy has been developed to help the City of Hamburg implement its vision for the mobility transition. The strategy is intended to support the mobility transition through digitally connected mobility services and to meet climate protection goals. In addition to transitioning transportation to alternative propulsion systems, a key objective is to shift travel in Hamburg from motorized private transportation to eco-friendly modes of transport. This includes public transit, cycling, and walking, as well as the use of on-demand and sharing services.
Digital Mobility Strategy – The Path to Climate Neutrality Is Digital
The strategy paper outlines five specific strategic goals, the implementation of which is now underway in Hamburg:
- Strengthen eco-friendly transport
To improve cross-modal mobility within the eco-friendly transport system, intermodal travel chains are being promoted through the provision and integration of data from various modes of transport.
- Intelligently Manage Mobility An overarching, multi-modal,
intelligent traffic management system is being established to improve traffic efficiency.
- Integrating mobility services
To make it easier for Hamburg’s citizens to use eco-friendly transport, the comprehensive mobility platform Switch is being further developed. This includes, among other things, expanding the range of services and enabling integrated planning, booking, and payment.
- Strengthening
compliance To support safety and order in the traffic environment, more digital solutions will be used in the future. This includes, for example, enabling infrastructure to communicate with road users as well as digital and automated monitoring of parking spaces.
- Providing and Utilizing Valid Mobility Data A
comprehensive, valid database is necessary for the future planning and coordination of Hamburg’s transportation systems. The Urban Data Platform (UDP) provides access to key mobility data. This platform’s database will continue to grow in the coming years, offering citizens, businesses, academia, and institutions centralized access to a wide range of mobility data from various city administration departments. It also serves as the foundation for developing new, innovative, and sustainable mobility solutions.
Digitalization at the Interface of the Energy System and Electric Mobility
hysolutions supports its shareholders in implementing digitalization measures in the transportation sector. In particular, regarding digitalization topics within the fields of alternative propulsion systems and sector coupling between the energy and transportation systems, hysolutions develops its own project ideas, leads consortia, and supports the City of Hamburg.
Förderung
- mFUND Guidelines for Digital Mobility Solutions
The Federal Ministry of Transport supports research and development projects focused on digital, data-driven applications for the mobility of the future. In addition to financial support, mFUND promotes networking among stakeholders from politics, business, and research through various event formats, as well as access to the mobility data portals Mobilithek and Mobility Data Space. In addition to funding for smaller projects (Funding Line 1), calls for proposals for the implementation of larger projects (up to €3 million) aimed at developing innovative and digital solutions in the transportation sector are regularly published under this guideline. - DNS of sustainable mobility. Digital – Sustainable – System-compatible With this new
program, the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy is prioritizing the funding of research and development projects in pre-competitive, application-driven collaborative initiatives within the automotive and mobility industry that possess high scaling and transformation potential. The program’s goal is to provide companies and institutions in the German mobility sector with a framework to actively shape technological change and jointly drive innovative developments in order to sustainably strengthen Germany as a hub for business and science.
