The Impact Of Car-free Housing Districts On Mobility Behaviour- Case Study

Abstract

The model district Freiburg-Vauban is one of the first low-car housing projects in Gemrany. Within the project Optimisation of the Traffic Concept of the District Freiburg-Vauban during Implementation sponsored by the German Federal Foundation for Environment, an evaluation of the traffic concept was carried out. The results show the influence of car-ownership on the mobility behaviour of people and the changes of mobility behaviour that took place after the resedents relinquished use of their cars. This paper reports on the traffic concept implemented in the district as well as the positive effects for the districts that could be reached by reducing the number of cars.
