TOOLBOX 2019: Peer Networking Series

Regional Transit Integration: Lessons from Germany for the Central Puget Sound Region

Monday, April 8, 12:00 - 1:30 pm

Transit agencies in the central Puget Sound region are striving to create a seamless, easy-to-use system that provides equitable and convenient access for residents and visitors no matter where they want to go. This requires the transit agencies to continually work on fare integration, trip planning, and customer information. Many of these issues have been addressed in Germany through regional coordination.

Please join us for a special TOOLBOX: Peer Networking session on Transit Integration: Lessons from Germany. The session will feature special guests from two leading German transit agencies:

Thomas Werner is the Deputy Head of Infrastructure and Traffic Engineering at the Münchner Verkehrsgesellschaft (MVG), the municipally owned transit operating agency in Munich, and the largest component of the regional verkehrsverbund.

Gisela Grafin von Schlieffen is currently Manager of Customer Relations at Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund (RMV), the regional verkehrsverbund for the entire Frankfurt-Main region.

Please RSVP online if you are planning to attend. We have limited space and cannot guarantee attendance without an RSVP.

Bring your lunch! Water will be provided.

Directions to the PSRC offices are available online.
