What is it about? It's half-time for the EUR 9 ticket. More than 30 million tickets were sold in June alone - which clearly shows that a public transport ticket that allows you to travel cheaply throughout Germany - across all fare zones - is well received by the public. And even if there were the (usual) delays, cancellations and overcrowded means of transport here and there, the feared chaos largely failed to materialize. So is the EUR 9 ticket a complete success?
The temporary introduction of the 9EUR ticket is a huge real-life experiment that provides important insights into people's mobility behavior, needs and attitudes. In the #4 SpeakerSeries "Future of Mobility", we want to delve deeper into the mid-term review of the 9EUR ticket from different perspectives: What impact has the offer had on different groups of the population? Where is the ticket more or less popular? Does the EUR 9 ticket actually encourage people to switch from private cars to public transport? What are people prepared to pay for an extension of the EUR 9 ticket?
The study aims to answer these and other questions. Mobility.life provide answers for the Munich metropolitan area. More than 1,300 citizens from Munich and the surrounding area are taking part in the project, which is being carried out by researchers from the Munich School of Public Policy and the Technical University of Munich. Allister Loder and Fabienne Cantner (both TU Munich) will provide an insight into the study, the data from which is already showing some revealing results. We would then like to discuss with the audience and our other guests - Jana Kugoth from the Tagesspiegel and Markus Siewert from the Munich School of Public Policy - how these can be classified nationwide, what other social and political questions arise and how the 9EUR ticket could be taken further.
The following experts await you:
Jana Kugoth
Editorial Director Tagesspiegel Background Traffic and Smart Mobility | Tagesspiegel
"As an advertising campaign for public transport, the 9-euro ticket is a maximum success. Whether the enticing offer will make bus and rail a permanent hit beyond August depends largely on how quickly politicians and the industry present a convincing follow-up concept."
About the person: Jana Kugoth has headed the Background team, of which she is a founding member, since summer 2020. She previously wrote for the digital magazine Gründerszene, primarily about new business models and start-ups in the mobility and logistics sector.
