Mobile points

The concept of the mobility points provides for the linking of different mobility services and modes of transport at suitable locations in the city. The basic equipment includes a parking space for a car sharing vehicle, proximity to a public transport stop and bicycle parking facilities. The stations should also be easily accessible on foot. Depending on the location, the facilities can be expanded to include additional services (e.g. bike rental system, e-scooters, cargo bikes, cabs, etc.). In future, the stations are to be equipped with e-car sharing vehicles and charging facilities.

The stations will be marked with a stele bearing the word mark "Mobilpunkt" to make them easier to recognize. The cities of Nuremberg and Fürth also operate Mobilpunkte in line with the Bremen concept. Due to the close commuter links on the Nuremberg-Fürth-Erlangen axis, emphasis was placed on recognizability.

A special form of Mobilpunkt is the Mobilhub, which is a mobility station without car sharing.

The map provides an overview of the locations of the mobile points:

Initially, one to three car sharing vehicles will be provided at the individual stations. If there is sufficient demand, the respective station can be expanded. To prevent private vehicles from blocking the parking spaces for the car sharing vehicles, the individual parking spaces are colored orange. This also increases visibility on the street.

The locations should be recognizable as mobility stations at first glance. A uniform appearance of the stations is required for recognition. To this end, a design was developed that was visually adapted to the neighboring cities. The name "Mobilpunkt" is based on the Bremen model.

The equipment for the Mobilpunkte (station, bicycle racks, signage, etc.) is provided by the city of Erlangen. The car sharing parking spaces are allocated through a transparent allocation procedure in accordance with the Car Sharing Act.

The use of the individual stations will be evaluated. If it turns out that a location is not well received, the Mobilpunkt can be relocated. Other stations that are particularly well used can be extended and expanded. If the service is well received overall, further mobile points will be set up in the city of Erlangen.
