"Mobility is a key prerequisite of ensuring economic growth, safeguarding jobs and guaranteeing social inclusion in Europe. At the same time, the mobility sector is undergoing profound structural changes - having in mind in particular the dynamic developments of digitalization and automation, changed mobility services and demand as well as requirements to protect our climate, environment and health. It is our task to join forces and shape this change. If our policies are smart and adaptable to the future we can deliver climate-friendly and affordable mobility and safeguard the competitiveness of the European mobility sector."

"The quality of local public transport is a benchmark for the quality of life in our cities and rural areas. Local public transport has to be attractive, safe, secure, reliable and affordable."

We want to have fibre optic - in every region and every municipality. To this end, we are supporting the broadband roll-out with 11 billion euros wherever private sector parties are not investing in the roll-out. We have significantly simplified the application process. The first approval is granted within less than two months. With our funding support, we have already been able to ensure high-speed Internet coverage for more than 2.2 million households, which were not viable for investments from private sector parties.
