Mobility has been the synonym for freedom, individuality and accretion. Today, it has grown to such an extent that transport is the largest consumer of energy; not manufacturing or heating. But mobility has changed over time. People's opinion on mobility changes further, due to the fact that it has become more available to the common man. What was available only to men like Kant in the 18th century is available to many people today. The individual mobility of people is no longer dependent on the physical mobility.
The scope for mobility has aggrandized over time for individuals, organisations and the government alike without anybody noticing. There almost always alternative choices for the transport and exchange of goods, information and humans. The knowledge about the alternatives and possibilities, therefore, naturally, becomes a prerequisite for success.
Spatial planning has evolved with the philosophy of development with utilising the resources scarcely.
Furthermore, migration, demographical and structural changes have today lead to new possibilities in Mobility.
nexus has assessed and developed numerous new mobility and spatial planning strategies and services to companies, regional corporations and the governments.
Activities have so far focused on leisure travel and rural transport, both areas which have found little attention in research so far. At the moment, participation and user representation are another focus of the institute's work.
