Future and values
On the one hand, traffic continues to increase. The traffic jams not only hit the motorways, but also the underlying roads silt up. The traffic increases over time and traffic jams are no longer just concentrate during typical rush hour. This growing congestion threatens the accessibility and quality of life of the centers. On the other hand, the climate clock is also ticking mercilessly.
To achieve the Flemish target of producing 35% less CO₂ by 2030 compared to 2005, mobility will have to make a significant contribution. Convincing more people to leave their car at home more often and to opt for forms of collective transport is necessary to achieve this objective.
In addition, technological evolutions, including autonomous vehicles, will also have a huge impact on how mobility will evolve. New technologies, new concepts, new opportunities, but also new roles that have to be filled in and taken on.
De Lijn has a clear vision of future mobility and what role it can and wants to play in this. The common thread here is focusing on the modal / mental shift and on strong partnerships. All players in the mobility field must help realize that change.
