Investigative Body Uncovered: Commission's Secret Operations Revealed
In the heart of Düsseldorf, a new company named Connected Mobility Düsseldorf GmbH (CMD) has taken shape with the goal of revolutionizing urban mobility through digitization and networking. Established in November 2019, the company has been steadily making strides towards its objectives.
Mayor Thomas Geisel serves as the chairman of CMD's supervisory board, with Rolf Neumann and Dr. David Rüdiger as managing directors. Neumann, previously head of a department in the Düsseldorf city administration, and Rüdiger, with a background in scientific consulting, bring valuable expertise to the table.
The company's mission is to advance the digital transformation of urban mobility by developing and implementing innovative connectivity solutions. CMD aims to facilitate smarter and more connected traffic management by leveraging digital technologies to better link vehicles, infrastructure, and users, thereby optimizing traffic flow and reducing congestion and emissions in Düsseldorf’s transport environment.
The focus is on fostering collaboration among various stakeholders and accelerating the deployment of connected mobility services in the city. CMD's fields of action include mobility data ecosystems, sensor-supported parking solutions, smartphone applications, and interfaces, collectively known as Mobility-as-a-Service.
A central element of CMD's strategy is the construction and operation of mobility hubs, or mobility stations. These hubs are designed to improve destination accessibility, especially for people without permanent car availability. By consolidating various forms of alternative mobility, such as shared bicycles, scooters, and cars, mobility hubs aim to reduce disorderly parked rental offers on sidewalks and public streets.
As the demand for shared mobility services in Düsseldorf continues to grow disproportionately to population growth, CMD is poised to play a key role in active management of new offers. In the long term, "White-Label package lockers" may be set up at mobility hubs for provider-overarching solutions to the growing package flood in the city.
The mobility transition in Düsseldorf is a key focus for the coming years, and the mayor has emphasized the need to activate digitization and networking potentials more strongly for traffic management. As such, CMD's work aligns with general European urban mobility goals and digitalization trends for traffic systems.

CMD now occupies premises located at Carlsplatz 18, and the approval process with local authorities was completed successfully, with the company being entered into the commercial register on July 17, 2020.
The mobility of tomorrow must be organized differently and more efficiently, and CMD is at the forefront of this movement in Düsseldorf, working towards a smarter, more connected, and more sustainable urban mobility ecosystem.
