Here to stay
The future financing of local public transport is currently on everyone's lips, especially in the context of the Deutschlandticket. As recently as August, Federal Transport Minister Wissing ruled out additional federal funding for the model. The funds are probably sufficient for 2023, but concrete figures on the subsidies required for 2024 are still missing. In the DILAX Lab, we talk to Jörg Niemann from Rödl & Partner.

DILAX Citisense®
Passenger counting data holds a lot of information about peak times, vehicle load, or even live occupancy. While these are very relevant KPIs in public transport, the real magic of passenger counting data lies in the many operational benefits that can be derived from it. To make these benefits accessible you need a powerful software solution that can process counting data and turn it into knowledge. In the DILAX Lab, Sama Beheshti, Senior Product Manager at DILAX, will share the benefits of an analytics software for passenger counting data.

Traveling the first mile
How long does it take you to go to the nearest bus stop or train station? Would you consider this “walking distance”? For many people, especially those living in the suburbs, the nearest train or bus station is often a 20-minute walk away, sometimes even longer. We call this “the first and last mile”, and it is not only an issue of convenience, but of accessibility.
