Workshop invitation: regaining trust in public transport after Covid 19

After two years of a global pandemic, some of the preconditions of sustainable mobility plans of municipalities are questioned.

• Increased use of home-office leads to changed or even reduced mobility flows and needs
• Lack of information and fear to get infected due to unclear hygienic conditions and compliance with hygienic rules lead to loss of trust in public transport

Therefore, instead of increased public transport, people are increasingly using individual transport,

• counteracting efforts to improve sustainable mobility
• putting financial pressure on public transport
• sometimes even increasing infection risks by travelling in smaller vehicles

In this workshop we will focus on the following questions:

• Scientific findings on hygienic guidelines for public transport
• Good practices on
  • defining hygienic rules for public transport
  • ensuring compliance with hygienic rules in public transport
  • regaining trust in public transport from political stakeholders and potential passengers

In exploration of abovementioned topics Connective Cities team would like to invite you to a workshop on December 9, 2021 at 13.00-15.00 CET on the following link
