Charlottenplatz in Stuttgart is a central transportation hub where multiple light rail lines and major traffic routes converge. It plays a vital role in public transit, connecting various parts of the city. Approximately 100,000 vehicles pass through this intersection daily, making Charlottenplatz one of the busiest traffic nodes in the city.
Discussions about the future of the square aim to reduce individual car traffic, enhance sustainability, and increase its appeal for pedestrians and cyclists.
A DB RegioRad station is already in place, enabling flexible rental of bicycles and e-bikes. Additionally, a Breuninger Mobility Hub is in the planning stages. This hub is designed to integrate innovative mobility solutions such as e-charging stations, car-sharing services, and bicycle parking. The goal is to consolidate various forms of mobility in one location, alleviate traffic congestion at Charlottenplatz, and promote sustainable alternatives.
