# Current financing of public transport

Extremely low fares and cost recovery already

Hence little risk of an opportunistic passenger surge on 1st March 2020

# Strategic goals 2025 ‘Modu 2.0’

The strategic goal for 2025 is to transport 20% more people than in 2017 while at the same time improving traffic flow during rush hours.

This implies increasing the number of public transport passengers by 50% within eight years and increasing car occupancy from 1.2 to 1.5 people per car.

www.modu2.lu

Goal 1Modal split of the work routes

Goal 2Increase the average occupancy rate for the distances between home and workplace to 1.5 persons per car (1.2 in 2017).This corresponds to ‘two persons in each second car’.

Goal 3Modal split of the school routes

Goal 4Make public transport more attractive.

Make less than one of 100 trains fail(in 2017, one of 40 trains failed)

Reduce the proportion of train serviceswith a delay of six minutes or more(compared to 2017) by 25%

Make sure that express bus travel times between the first stop and the terminus at peak hours are shorter than those for private cars.

# Paradigm shift 1: focus

Space used up per transported passenger and per transport mode at 20 km/h in an urban environment (This space increases with the speed and because of the security gap between vehicles).

Focus on moving people, not vehiclesMotorcyclist

# Paradigm shift 2: stakeholder mobilisation

#Employers and educational institutions are the most frequented destinations in the morning rush hours and the starting point of the routes during the evening rush hours.

#The state sets the legal framework. Through its investments in transport infrastructure, public transport and spatial planning, it sets the direction for mobility development.

#The citizen has the freedom to choose between different means of transport and is able to reconsider his habits on a regular basis.

#Municipalities create public space that invites residents to prefer one particular mode of transport to another.

Mobility is a challenge for all – not just the state – to solve

# Paradigm shift 3: anticipate rather than firefight

Do not endlessly chase traffic jams with roadworksAnticipate future demand and plan for it

Fast tram between the metropolitan areas of Luxembourg-city and South
