Heidelberg

The City of Heidelberg is the workplace for 123,000 people and part of the Rhine-Neckar Metropolitan Region which has a population of some 2.4 million people. Global corporations, medium-sized companies and innovative start-ups have their headquarters here alongside the renowned University Ruperto and other educational and research institutions.

In 1992, the City of Heidelberg was among the first cities in Germany to put a concept for climate protection into action that defined a systematic course of action including mobility and traffic management: Heidelberg’s mobility concept enables a holistic view of all forms of urban mobility and integrates 16 districts with unique features impacting individual and public transportation. Their mobility plan is continuously updated and developed to achieve climate-neutrality goals by 2030 and 2040. This is what they want to discuss with other POLIS members.

The City of Heidelberg is involved in EU project REALLOCATE.
