Mobility budgets and bundles in the Munich metropolitan region as an alternative to regulation

Mobility budgets and bundles in the Munich metropolitan region as an alternative to regulation

Testing innovative mobility services for a sustainable transport transition

In the project MobiPioneer We are investigating the potential impact of innovative Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) offerings such as mobility budgets and mobility bundles in Real laboratories for everyday mobility and major events.

  • Mobility bundle: Combination of certain services at a fixed price.
  • Mobility budget: Provision of a freely usable amount of money for various means of transportation.

These offers are intended to reduce the perceived costs of public transport by Comfort and ease of use via smartphone. The aim is to make public transport more attractive compared to private transport and thus create a Modal shift towards more sustainable options.

How do we work?

Real-world labs, data analysis and user-centered solutions

  • Participatory development: Together with relevant stakeholders, we design mobility budgets and mobility bundles.
  • Scientific approach: We draw up an experimental plan to precisely record politically relevant effects.
  • Innovative implementation: Using real-world laboratories and state-of-the-art technology, such as smartphone-supported mobility surveys, we analyze the behavior of several hundred participants.

We test mobility offers in the following steps

Analyze

We record the current state of research on Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) with a focus on mobility budgets and bundles as well as their potential impact. In addition, an overview of the available MaaS smartphone apps in Germany is being compiled. The insights gained will be incorporated into the concept development of the services and form the basis for the real-world laboratories.

Develop

The offers to be tested, i.e. Mobility bundles and budgetsare being developed. Mobility demand and the needs of society, administration, business and research are taken into account. Through close cooperation with the integration project WiPa the conception is participatory. The most promising variants are selected step by step.

Implementation

The services developed are now being technically implemented and the prototypes tested. Preparations are also being made for the use of the services in the real-world laboratories. The operational and scientific process of the real-world laboratories, including the selection of participants, the schedule and data collection (e.g. surveys and mobility behavior surveys), is also being planned.

Implementation

In the next step, the Everyday reality lab carried out. Here, the mobility services developed are tested in everyday life and results on their impact are collected.

In addition, the implementation of the Large event real laboratoriesin which mobility services are tested under the conditions of major events.

Evaluate & assess

Finally, the data collected from the real-world laboratories will be analyzed and the central research questions examined:

To what extent can the new mobility services achieve a modal shift from private transport to eco-mobility? And who in particular can benefit from mobility budgets and budgets?

Who is behind it?

A motivated consortium of experienced partners from science, business, the public sector and society is working together in an interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary manner on the pressing issues of our time.

What is MOSAIQ?
Imagine something: There is more space for people. The streets have more trees and plants. Everyone can get around better. That's how your Schwabing-West district could be in the future. How would you like your district to be? We want to talk to you about it!

The project is called MOSAIQ. MOSAIQ is a research∙project. MOSAIQ means: Mobility and urban climate in the future city∙part. The Technical University of Munich is leading the project.

What is MOSAIQ about?
MOSAIQ wants to make the streets in the city∙part more beautiful. People should feel comfortable there. There should be more space. For meetings and plants, for example. You can help decide what is tried out in the Stadt∙teil. The ideas come from you. Some ideas will be tried out on the streets for a certain period of time.
The aim of MOSAIQ is to make urban districts good places to live.
At the same time, the climate in the city should improve. And people should be able to move around the city easily. 

What is happening in the district?

  • In the year 2025:
    The people in the district can participate. They can express their ideas. There are discussions, surveys and meetings. Researchers are also starting their work.
  • In the year 2026:
    Some ideas are tried out.
    They are moved around the streets for a certain period of time.
  • In the year 2027:
    The results are evaluated.
    Consideration is given to how things can continue∙.
