ZKW Lichtsysteme GmbH is a specialist for innovative premium lighting systems and electronics, which provides jobs for around 3,000 employees at its headquarters in Wieselburg. The planned expansion of the company on the area of the employee parking spaces is taken as an opportunity to implement a holistic mobility concept so that the accessibility of the company can be ensured in the future. In addition to motor vehicle traffic, all options for other forms of mobility are considered for handling commuter and business-related trips.

The following forms of mobility are being assessed:

• Active forms of mobility (on foot and by bicycle)
• Public transport (bus and train)
• Multimodality (e.g. public transport-bicycle/foot, car-public transport)
• Company transport (e.g. shuttle bus, minibuses)

In addition to measures relating to the various forms of mobility, other organizational measures, such as flexible forms of work (e.g. home office) or incentive systems for employees, are also being examined. Close cooperation with the municipality of Wieselburg enables effective solutions to be developed beyond the boundaries of the company.

Sappi Gratkorn produces 980,000 tons of high-quality double and triple coated paper annually, which is used worldwide. It is one of the most modern production facilities for coated fine paper and is located north of Graz.
The entire delivery of the required raw materials and the export of the produced goods is carried out via access gates on the southern side of the Mura River by means of trucks and the shunting of wagons.

The logistics concept examines, based on considerations about an expansion of production, the traffic situation outside and inside the plant.
Based on provided delivery data, the average traffic of one day could be converted to the created traffic network of the plant. Video surveys were used to collect data on internal traffic at key intersections and to estimate the capacity utilization.
Traffic counts were conducted in the vicinity of the plant to ensure performance on the surrounding road network in the event of a possible increase in plant traffic.
