Der Straßenverkehr ist vielerorts geprägt von Staus und Lärm. Der große Ressourcenverzehr der heutigen Verkehrssysteme, wie etwa der Verbrauch fossiler Kraftstoffe, soll durch die Verkehrswende gesenkt und die allgemeine Lebensqualität gestärkt werden. Im Projekt EXPERI wurde erforscht, wie die Verkehrswende in Städten gelingen kann.

This chapter is devoted to mobility in France and Germany. First, key mobility indicators for the two countries are presented. This shows that private motorised transport still dominates in both France and Germany. Despite many negative effects on the climate, but also on health and quality of life, no far-reaching measures have been adopted.
Im August 2021 wurde ein Teil der Barbarossastraße in Berlin Schöneberg komplett autofrei. Konkret bedeutet das, dass es in diesem Zeitraum keinen motorisierten Verkehr im Bereich zwischen der Goltzstraße und der Kyffhäuser Straße gab und die Straße somit zum Zufußgehen, Radfahren, Spielen und zum Aufenthalt genutzt werden konnte. Das DLR Institut für Verkehrsforschung hat die Sommerstraße Barbarossa wissenschaftlich begleitet und vor sowie nach dem Projekt in Kooperation mit dem Projekt Kiezerfahren eine Haushaltsbefragung durchgeführt. Insgesamt wurden 1700 Haushalte in den angrenzenden Wohnblöcken gebeten, schriftlich oder online an den Befragungen teilzunehmen. Insgesamt haben 193 Personen an der Befragung teilgenommen (eine Rücklaufquote von 11 %).

Commuting by bicycle or on foot is beneficial for health and wellbeing. However, cycling and walking alongside road traffic poses the risk of air pollution and noise exposure. The perceived exposure to air pollution and noise en route and the momentary sensory awareness in traffic has rarely been investigated. This study addresses this research gap. The aim was to examine cyclists’/pedestrians’ sensory awareness, perceived and measured exposure, and practices to reduce health risks and improve wellbeing en route.

This article uses quantitative and qualitative methods to investigate which objectively measurable emotional reactions occur during a walk, which correlations to spatial characteristics can be derived, and to what extent the physical reactions correspond to the subjective assessment of the test persons.

It is obvious that mobility has to change, as it has a major impact on climate change and greenhouse emissions, land consumption as well as tangible disadvantages such as accidents, illnesses caused by air pollution and noise pollution and lack of exercise. In the interview, you learn about Tactical Urbanism, efficiency and co-working spaces, among other things, and what this has to do with modern mobility. Synergy effects and the interconnection of means of transport also play a major role.
