Research Project "Mobility in Cities - SrV"

The traffic survey Mobility in Cities, established in 1972 as a System of Representative Traffic Behavior Surveys (SrV), seeks to identify mobility characteristics of the urban population.

The 12th survey round of the time series "Mobility in Cities - SrV" has been running since January 2023. It wil run until early 2024 in over 500 German cities and municipalities.

The SrV Standard

The SrV is committed to providing a continuous and comparable time series. The survey design is therefore characterized by certain core features. These include the fact that the population consists of the inhabitants of the respective city or municipality; the mobility of the resident population thus represents the central research subject.

Results of SrV 2018

The results of "Mobility in Cities – SrV 2018" specific to each city were published by the commissioning institutions on their own. City-independent results, such as the comparison of participating cities or city groups, or presentations of higher-level development trends are published by TU Dresden. These are available for download for the 2018 survey.

"Mobility in Cities - SrV"

The coordination and scientific management of the survey is the responsibility of the Chair of Mobility System Planning (until 09/2023 Chair of Integrated Transport Planning and Traffic Engineering). Following a Europe-wide invitation to tender, TU Dresden has commissioned the Leipzig-based institute O.trend GmbH to carry out the SrV 2023 surveys.

Detailed information for households selected for the survey, potential clients for future rounds and on the scientific use of the data is available here: Project Website "Mobility in Cities - SrV"
