Our MCube consortium

Aims to improve the efficiency of the transportation system, particularly in terms of infrastructure capacity and traffic flow. In addition, the focus is on reliable and convenient mobility between everyday locations.

• Efficiency and comfort:

  • Improved traffic flows and punctuality
  • Convenient access to everyday destinations
  • Reduction of time and costs with multi-intermodality

• Regional development:

  • Optimize accessibility of workplaces
  • Shorter distances for specific purposes
  • Promotion of cycling and walking at neighborhood level

• Innovations and framework conditions:

  • Faster approvals for tests and implementations
  • Analyze and adapt political and social framework conditions

Looks at the impact of mobility innovation on public space and regional open spaces. The aim is to create new, diverse recreational and exercise areas that are accessible to the entire population.

• Increase space efficiency:

  • Less land consumption due to transport infrastructure
  • Space-saving networking of mobility services
  • Lower parking space requirements and private car ownership

• Creating attractive neighborhoods:

  • Higher quality of stay and longer dwell time
  • Optimized street layout for all user groups

• Promote safety and health:

  • Improved traffic and social safety
  • Reduction of psychological and physical stress caused by traffic

• Rethinking framework conditions:

  • Strengthening social dialog and awareness of spatial quality
  • Adapt policy measures to promote sustainable initiatives

Refers to traffic-related environmental pollution. All MCube projects aim not only to reduce local air pollutants, but also to reduce CO₂-savings also make a contribution to global climate protection.

• emissions:

  • Lower CO2 emissions in everyday mobility per vehicle kilometer, per capita and per region
  • Reduction of CO2, noise and local air pollutants in freight, delivery and service traffic
  • Reduction of noise and air pollution (e.g. NOx, particulate matter) in neighborhoods

• Conserve resources:

  • Holistic reduction of emissions over the entire life cycle of the vehicles ("cradle to cradle")
  • Efficient use of rare resources in production, operation and disposal
  • Improved recycling and disposal measures for different modes of transportation

• Promoting social change:

  • Raising awareness and acceptance of air quality initiatives through dialog and policy measures
