In collaboration with the FH Erfurt University of Applied Sciences, the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar is organizing an international lecture series on sustainable mobility planning in the winter semester 2018/19. Allan Alaküla from the municipality of Tallinn will kick off the lecture series on 15 October with a talk on his experiences with free local public transport. Anyone who is interested is strongly encouraged to attend!

How can we organise sustainable mobility and make our cities more liveable? Renowned guest lecturers will answer this question using examples of international best practices. In six lectures held in English, the experts will present planning processes from international projects with a focus on urban areas. The topics and their transferability will be discussed in an accompanying seminar.

The lecture series was initiated as part of the Bauhaus.Semester by the Professorship for Transport System Planning at the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar in cooperation with Prof. Dr. Matthias Gather, who heads the Professorship for Transport Policy and Spatial Planning at the FH Erfurt University of Applied Sciences.


All interested parties are warmly invited to attend.
