New transport minister, Oliver Krischer, bestows mobility manager title on Robin Lummert in Düsseldorf; Bergisch Gladbach welcomes its latest mobility manager.
In the heart of North Rhine-Westphalia, the city of Bergisch Gladbach is making strides in its mobility transition, with a team of dedicated professionals leading the charge.
On June 26, Robin Lummert, a mobility manager working in the Bergisch Gladbach municipal administration since April 2024, was awarded for his significant role in this transformation. The honour was bestowed by Oliver Krischer, Minister for Environment, Nature Conservation and Transport of North Rhine-Westphalia.
Mobility managers like Lummert are instrumental in shaping the city's mobility landscape, developing and creating plans and concepts, coordinating projects, and serving as contact persons for citizens. According to Krischer, they are the key to local mobility transition, bridging good ideas and concepts for safe walking and cycling paths, and good connections for bus and train in cities, communities, and districts.
Lummert, alongside Natascha Schemmann, Maren Hesselmann, and Jonathan Benninghaus, are among the four mobility managers currently active in Bergisch Gladbach. Their roles are pivotal in promoting internal cooperation among different departments, including the public works department and the press office, to ensure a holistic implementation of topics like cycling, public transport, walking, sharing offers, and company mobility.
The city's goal is to integrate mobility as a cross-cutting task in the administration. This is evident in the various mobility offers being linked in Bergisch Gladbach, such as bus and train with cycling and walking, or complementary sharing models.
Ragnar Migenda, First Deputy Mayor of the city of Bergisch Gladbach, values the position of mobility manager, stating it offers an important opportunity for future-oriented mobility in the city. In 2019, Bergisch Gladbach joined Zukunftsnetz Mobilität NRW, further demonstrating its commitment to sustainable mobility solutions.
