The 9-Euro Ticket increased public transport use but hardly shifted away from car travel. Train use surged for leisure activities; car use dropped least among commuters. The 9-Euro Ticket led to overcrowding, delaying both regional and non-covered long-distance trains. A rough calculation...

This paper examines the impact of Germany's nationwide 9-Euro-Ticket, a temporary almost fare-free transport ticket, on highway passenger traffic. Using a difference-in-differences approach, we find a significant reduction of approximately 4.5%, primarily driven by decreased weekend traffic....

We consider the price-optimal earliest arrival problem in public transit (POEAP) in which we aim to calculate the Pareto-set of journeys with respect to ticket price and arrival time in a public transportation network. Public transit fare structures are often a combination of various fare...

Guerrilla marketing in public transport is distinguished by the fact that it usually avoids traditional advertising methods such as television commercials or newspaper ads. Guerrilla campaigns in public transport focus on creative tactics to surprise the public and generate buzz about the brand....

The city of Ostrava aims at turning its public transport system into a climate-neutral system. So far, the complete fleet of buses, trams, etc. was turned into climate-friendlier vehicles, e.g. CNG or electric vehicles. Ostrava was the first Czech city that transformed its whole public transport...

Although students around campuses mostly rely on university public transportation (i.e. shuttle buses), studies on how university public transportation logistics service quality impacts student satisfaction are limited. Hence, this study investigates the university public transportation...

Access and ingress to and from the metro stations plays a crucial role in elevating the efficacy of transportation systems. This study presents a novel approach to optimize and integrate feeder route network with mass transit system using GIS. An initial accessibility analysis of existing feeder...

Es handelt sich um ein WP, das die Ergebnisse eines Lehrforschungsseminars zu On-Demand-Mobilität in Rendsburg als Teil eines Drittmittelprojektes darstellt. Die Veranstaltung wurde geleitet von Katharina Manderscheid, Projektleiterin, und Christoph van Dülmen, wissenschaftlicher...

Improving public transport infrastructure changes local market conditions. In this paper, I examine the impact of the construction and operation of "Metrobus", Mexico City's Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system on consumer prices in chain stores, street vendors, and small family-owned (mom and pop)...

We identify and examine a novel welfare channel of fuel economy standards through the in-teraction with public transit and households’ location choices. A stricter emission standard for cars decreases the marginal cost of driving and triggers a shift in modal choice from public to private...

In 2022, Germany introduced a temporary 9-euro monthly ticket for unlimited local and regional public transport. We investigate its impact on mobility patterns, including increased public transport usage, reduced car traffic, and rail network congestion. Using difference-in-difference and...

Urban Air Mobility (UAM) beschreibt den kommerziellen Personentransport in der Luft, in oder zwischen Städten und ländlichen Gebieten, mittels eVTOL-Vehikeln (electric vertical take-off and landing vehicles). UAM wird ein großes Potenzial prognostiziert, weil die eVTOL-Vehikel effizienter,...

Die Einführung des Deutschlandtickets wird von verschiedenen Seiten kritisiert. So wird angeführt, dass durch das Deutschlandticket die Komplexität für Unternehmen im öffentlichen Personennahverkehr (ÖPNV) zunehme, primär Gutverdienende begünstigt würden, Fehlanreize und Fehlsteuerungen...

This study quantifies the effect of train station openings on residential house prices across Germany over a 12-year period to provide generalizable evidence on the valuation of access to passenger rail by households. It is based on data on about 90 train station openings between 2009 and 2020...
