Corona obliges, this year’s Monitoring Committee took place online, but it was no less successful!
Despite the current difficult situation, the TERMINAL project has managed to make substantial progress in 2020, and the INTERREG project manager, Mrs Arnould, was very pleased to congratulate the consortium.
With the acquisition of two test vehicles, an important project milestone has been reached and preparations for the operational phase are in full swing.
We will keep you informed!

Due to the corona crisis and the lack of commuter traffic to Luxembourg, we have currently suspended our survey among users of cross-border bus lines.
As soon as working conditions normalise, you will be able to participate in our survey again.
Therefore, the prize draw will be postponed to a later date. Thank you for your understanding.

In order to optimize cross-border commuter traffic between France, Luxembourg and Germany with the TERMINAL test project by means of automated and demand-oriented public mobility offers, the Technical University of Kaiserslautern will conduct an online survey starting in March 2020. The survey is intended to record mobility habits in order to find out how commuters are confronted with innovative mobility offers and which concept best meets their needs.
Help us to help shape the mobility of tomorrow and answer our questions.

Within the project TERMINAL we would like to determine the acceptance of self-driving vehicles by potential users, so that we can come closer to our goal of optimising cross-border commuter traffic in the Greater Region through automated, demand-oriented and public mobility offers.
At this point your opinion is requested: Do you consider self-driving vehicles to be a sustainable and economic transport solution for future mobility or are they just an utopic vision?
Share your visions of future mobility with us!
Take about 20 minutes of your time for our survey and improve the mobility of the Greater Region.
We count on you!
Your details will of course be treated strictly confidentially. The research-related results will be used exclusively in anonymous form in publications.

Since March 16th 2020 the borders between Germany, France and Luxembourg have been closed. This of course not only affects commuters, but also the work in the cross-border project TERMINAL.
Nevertheless, we remain in contact and are working at full speed on our vision of an automated, demand-oriented and public mobility offer for the Greater Region.
Stay healthy!

In the TERMINAL project, future and sustainable mobility concepts (robo-services) are to be researched. For this purpose it is important to determine the needs and preferences of different user groups.
This is the reason why the imove institute of the TU Kaiserslautern together with the htw saar conduct workshops with students, students, professionals, seniors and persons with reduced mobility.
With the support of the company MOGEoK and the personal commitment of its managing director Mrs. Ann-Christin Koch, two insightful workshops with REHA participants have been carried out.
We would like to thank MOGEoK and all participants!

Our operational partner SnT from the University of Luxembourg and the bus operator Voyages Emile Weber came together to test the software with the hardware of the bus. During this test, errors in the software could be identified and solved. The final integration of the software can now take place as planned. After a test run in February, the recording of the technical data will begin.
We thank Voyages Emile Weber for the active support!

This was the motto of the day of the open test field in Merzig.
Together with the Research Group for Traffic Telematics (FGVT) of htw saar the district town Merzig gave citizens the opportunity to experience this live. In the course of test drives, interested parties could experience at first hand how intelligent transport systems contribute to the improvement of efficiency in road traffic and road safety.
