Digital link established among ferry vessels navigating the fjord - Ferry transportation now linked through digital network
No more squinting at the Kiel Fjord to catch a glimpse of that ferry! Now, with just a tap on your phone, you've got it figured out. The city of Kiel, teaming up with regional transport company (NAH.SH), has crafted a nifty real-time guidance system for ferry traffic. No more wondering if you're missing your boat! The system displays departure, arrival times, and the current occupancy of each ship at every docking station, as well as in handy mobility apps.
Wondering if you should bring an umbrella or grab that extra cup of coffee? The federal government's footing the bill for this innovative project, which clocks in at around 1.5 million euros. Kiel city had to chip in an extra 170,000 euros to make it happen.
One ferry line glides between the west and east banks, while another links Kiel with numerous locations along the fjord, including Laboe (Circuit Ploen). During the summer season, the latter line extends to Strande in the Rendsburg-Eckernfoerde district.
