Norbert Schmidt

Project Manager - Infostelle Fahrradparken – DB InfraGO
Berlin - Germnay
Norbert Schmidt advises municipalities all across Germany on all aspects regarding attractive high quality bicycle parking at public transport hubs. He does so in his capacity as project manager at the "Competence Center Bicycle Parking" (“Infostelle Fahrradparken”) funded by the German Federal Ministry for Digital and Transport hosted by DB InfraGO. His main focus is achieving a high level of user friendliness while finding ways of bringing together the often-conflicting interests of the many diverse stakeholders that come together around the scarce premium spaces at train stations and public transport hubs. Guiding his work is the question: “What do we need to do to win over those that don’t yet connect to public transport by bike, but could?” The interconnection of cycling and public transportation has long been at the core of his work, from developing a Start-Up in Finland, working on the National Cycling Plan for Germany and regional Cycling strategies in his previous positions as mobility consultant. In his free time, he's often found on a bike enjoying long and short distance rides, curiously documenting bike (parking) infrastructure with his camera.
