CIVITAS Success Story: Spotlight on Aachen (Germany) 13 Mobility management measures successfully shifted behaviour. At RWTH, they contributed to the percentage of employees commuting to and from the universities with sustainable modes (public transport, cycling or walking) increasing from 42% to 55% between 2010 and 2016. Plus, mobility surveys undertaken as part of DYN@MO indicated an average annual reduction of 3.15 million kilometres driven by car, and 650 tons of CO2 emitted at RWTH. This work is far from over. The City of Aachen and the universities share a common goal to be role models for all public employers in Aachen. A joint funding application by the City and RWTH Aachen is in preparation, aiming to improve cycling to the university; if successful, it be implemented in 2023–2026. The city and universities are also working together on preventing car traffic in new construction projects. The electrification of car fleets through charging infrastructure at RWTH is another ongoing topic, which is currently at the heart of a nationally funded research and development project.
