Car-Sharing

• 1,000 fewer parking spaces needed

• about 12-25 mio. € parking infrastructure saved


Car-Sharing – impacts in Bremen


Impacts

Lower car-mileage travelled(more use of PT, rail and bike)

Appropriate cars for purpose of journey(downsizing of cars )

Better cars available(new cars, high emission standard)

= direct CO2 reduction


Urban Development

Every Car-Sharing vehicle replaces4 - 8 private cars!

Bremen: replaced1000 private cars

Parking garages for1000 cars = value10 - 25 mio €(8 – 20 Mio £)


Space allocation:
