How do guests get to tourist destinations and how do they get around? Against the backdrop of climate change, changing travel habits and rising numbers of guests, these issues are becoming increasingly important. The aim is to reconcile accessibility and tourist demand with climate protection and amenity quality for locals and visitors.
On behalf of the district administration of Garmisch-Partenkirchen, and in cooperation with the Alpenforschungsinstitut GmbH at the Munich University of Applied Sciences and Saint Elmo’s Tourism GmbH, the BERNARD Gruppe is currently developing a mobility concept for traffic and visitor management at the Eibsee in the municipality of Grainau. The measures are intended to help reduce local traffic congestion and encourage a shift towards more sustainable modes of transport. Reducing congestion is essential for ensuring public acceptance of tourism activities and for enhancing the overall visitor experience.
A central component of the project is the development of measures such as digital pre-booking options for parking spaces or informing arriving visitors about alternative parking options. The results are presented in an impact analysis, complemented by planning recommendations addressing technical, legal, and economic aspects.
