Inner-city mobility for tomorrow
Our city center is too beautiful to simply drive through. That's why cars will be routed differently in some parts of the city center in the future. Important to know: All destinations in the city center will remain accessible for all road users.
City of Aachen
The overall concept "City center mobility for tomorrow" has three goals: The city center should be easily accessible. Interaction in road traffic should be considerate and relaxed. People should be able to live quietly in the city center and enjoy being together. One of the various measures in the overall "City center mobility for tomorrow" package is the new traffic routing in the city center. In future, people will be able to access specific areas of the city center at certain intersections. It will no longer be possible to drive directly from one area to another. In technical jargon, these intersections are called "steering points". All the latest developments, answers to many questions and further background information on the "City center mobility for tomorrow" concept.
