Traffic & Mobility

Together with the Free State of Bavaria and the federal highway company Autobahn GmbH, the city of Erlangen is looking for solutions to improve noise protection in the city area along the A 73 federal highway.

The city of Erlangen is expanding its mobility options by promoting electromobility and sharing services and linking different forms of mobility.

With "Regnitzstadt", Erlangen is to have a new district on the former large parking lot. At the same time, the district is to become a striking entrance to the city and be strengthened as a mobility hub.

The damage to the Kriegenbrunn lock cannot be completely repaired. The Federal Waterways and Shipping Administration (WSV) is therefore planning and building a new lock at the same location using state-of-the-art engineering technology.

A parking concept is being developed for Erlangen's city center together with affected stakeholders. The concept will then be tested as part of a pilot project. The aim is to reduce sidewalk parking, set up loading zones and develop new parking regulations.

Erlangen's city center is heavily burdened by traffic (parked vehicles, commuter traffic, etc.) In order to relieve the city of motor vehicle traffic and increase the quality of stay, local public transport will be further strengthened by suitable measures.

In future, the Stadt-Umland-Bahn (StUB) will connect the cities of Nuremberg, Erlangen and Herzogenaurach as a tramway and help secure the future of the region as an efficient, environmentally friendly, low-barrier and attractive alternative to car traffic. The StUB also offers sustainable mobility, particularly for the large number of commuters along the city axis.
