Vienna’s public transport system is among the best in the world. The network is dense and the frequency is tight. It is so well developed that you don’t even need to know the timetable. A total of 2.61 million people are transported from A to B by public transport here every day.

But what challenges must urban public transport face in times of the mobility change? And what role will it itself play in this?
