HUBS

Mobility hubs are hubs that connect different forms of transportation and preferably have other functions as well. Consider the combination of public transportation, shared mobility, private transport and other services, such as coffee, workplaces and parcel lockers. Hubs are indispensable in a sustainable mobility system and well-functioning compacted cities. Travelers can more easily travel sustainably and have greater choice and flexibility. Residents are offered an attractive living environment.

We want to achieve the following

Within the theme of hubs, we work together with municipalities, companies and regions on sustainable, successful mobility hubs that can actually accelerate mobility transition and urban densification. We do this by jointly developing knowledge, making agreements, discussing best practices and working on a better understanding and functioning of mobility hubs in their environment and networks.

This is what we are working on

We are working on realizing sustainably successful mobility hubs. Special attention is being paid to the approximately 70 hubs in 35 municipalities that are being realized in area developments as part of housing agreements. There is a great need for knowledge exchange and development between municipalities and with parties in the market. We are also paying attention to the digital aspect of hubs. Such as making agreements around data sharing, an exploration of the possibilities of digital twins, and an outline of the architecture.

National program Mobility Hubs

The national program mobility hubs focuses on developing and sharing knowledge about hubs. Municipalities are invited to share knowledge and experiences with each other. And more knowledge and experience is gained around themes such as exploitation, business cases, meaningful owner and management agreements, the design of hubs, etc.

Digital hubs and P+Rs

Travelers park the car at a hub or P+R lot just outside the city and continue traveling by public transportation. Often there are bus stops or train stations nearby. Various facilities are currently offered to travelers under the name P+R. There is an ambition to make the various P+R locations more uniformly recognizable. Developing the digital side of these P+Rs is also important in this regard. The same need exists at other hub locations where travelers park and 'transit'. A plan of action is being developed to improve the facilities for this. Travelers can then more easily plan, reserve, book, and pay for their trip via a P+R as part of their total journey. Including their onward journey by public transportation or shared transport.

Of course!shared mobility

In the cooperation program Naturally! shared mobility (N!D), the state, provinces, municipalities, regional collaborations and knowledge institutions are working together to accelerate and better organize shared mobility for the traveler. The program provides, among other things, national standardization and collection of data. N!D provides direction and a coherent approach to organizing shared mobility locally, regionally and nationally.
