Freie Wähler on transport

The Free Voters want to greatly expand public transit in cities and rural areas and create a single fare for all of Bavaria. Students would ride to school free from the first kilometer, and apprentices would get much cheaper tickets.

The Free Voters want more buses and trains in Bavaria. There should be one fare for all of Bavaria. Students should ride to school for free. Apprentices should get much cheaper tickets. Everyone should be able to use buses and trains without barriers.

The platform calls for a Bavaria-wide transit fare and heavily discounted tickets for apprentices. School transport would be free starting from the first kilometer. Transit would become barrier-free everywhere and offer continuous Wi-Fi. Bavaria's rail network would be fully electrified, and transit switched to hydrogen where possible. More bicycle parking is planned at train stations.

The Free Voters consider the car indispensable and reject a general speed limit on the Autobahn. At the same time, they want to build fast cycle routes, shift freight to rail and waterways, and keep blocking a third runway at Munich Airport.

The Free Voters say driving must stay affordable. They do not want a general speed limit on the Autobahn. They also want to build fast bike routes. More goods should travel by train and ship. Munich Airport should not get a third runway.

The platform relies on roads, bike paths and public transit working side by side. Federal roads and the Autobahn would stay fully state-owned, investment in state roads would be kept stable, and bridges adapted to heavier loads. Infrastructure for hydrogen drives would grow quickly and substantially, with renewable fuels replacing fossil ones. Closed rail lines would be reopened and federal rail projects carried out swiftly. For airports, the platform calls for a Bavaria-wide plan; working from home and car sharing are meant to ease traffic.
