Information for Participating Households

SrV 2023 is taking place simultaneously in about 500 German cities and municipalities. Households that were randomly selected to participate in the current survey round will find answers to the most important questions and further information on the survey process here.

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

Thank you for your interest in the research project "Mobility in Cities – SrV".

The household travel survey (HTS) Mobility in Cities, founded in 1972 as a "System of Representative Travel Surveys (SrV)", serves to determine mobility parameters of the urban resident population. On the one hand, it regularly updates and analyzes important data for municipal transport planning on the basis of a uniform survey design. On the other hand, cross-city trends in traffic development and their boundary conditions can be researched using large samples.

The field time period of SrV 2023 started in January 2023. By early 2024, 270,000 people will be surveyed.

The coordination and scientific management lie with the Chair of Mobility System Planning. After a Europe-wide invitation to tender, the TU Dresden commissioned the Leipzig-based institute t O.trend GmbH to conduct the surveys.

On May 6th of 2021 we held the digital opening event fot the SrV 2023.

The cross-city results of the 2018 survey as well as the methodology report are now available for download at SrV 2018.
