On 12 September 2019, the Aperol project was presented to the Mobility Committee of the City of Aachen. After a general introduction, in which all participants were informed about the project content as well as the goals, the international citizen dialog on autonomous mobility of the future, which took place in April 2019, was the focus of attention.
One of the core messages was the fundamentally positive attitude of the citizens of Aachen towards future mobility arrangements. The participants see a high potential for improvement, especially in the areas of traffic load and road safety. Many Aachen citizens, for example, also hope that the introduction of automated vehicles leads to a stress-free and safer traffic in urban areas. At the end of the event, the floor was again given to the citizens. Two of the participants in the civil dialog reported to the political representatives about their personal experiences, needs and attitudes concerning autonomous mobility.
