The conditions for the mobility transition are generally worse in rural areas than in urban regions, as public transport cannot offer attractive access to areas due to the low population density. In the County of Bentheim (BBSR [Federal Office for Building and Regional Planning] region type: high-density rural area), a traditionally very high level of bicycle use and an excellently developed inter-municipal cycle path network meet a railroad line that has been reactivated for passenger transport, provides central access to the district area, connects to the neighboring regional centers of Münster and Osnabrück and started regular operations on July 7, 2019 (RB 56). This provides a good basis for developing and effectively implementing convincing solutions for sustainable mobility in this district. The aim is to combine the already good infrastructural conditions with complementary measures into an overall concept so that mobility without a car in inter-municipal transport becomes an attractive option for broad user groups and all travel purposes (intra-municipal transport already makes extensive use of bicycles). The core idea of the project is to bundle the existing and partially implemented measures in an integrated overall concept across all stakeholders and also to develop complementary innovative measures with the involvement of the citizens. A focus is also to be placed on user groups that have been difficult to reach to date. In the first phase of the project, the needs, interests and promising approaches will be analyzed and the existing approaches will be combined with new, innovative measures to be developed into an overall multimodal concept. As part of the project, the Chair of Freight Transport Planning and Transport Logistics is conducting surveys and interviews with users of the railroad line and carrying out multimodal accessibility analyses.
