Responsibility

Taking responsibility – on behalf of Hamburg

The fight against climate change, commitment to social issues, and diversity are all firmly at the heart of HOCHBAHN’s corporate strategy.

Keeping the city and its people moving in a sustainable way – that is our job and that is our responsibility towards Hamburg. With our climate-neutral transport services and the “Hamburg Takt” initiative running through to 2030, we are well on the way to combatting climate change and reducing our carbon footprint. We are equally committed to standing up against any form of discrimination. We tackle diversity head on – with diversity. Respect is central to what we stand for, and we therefore take diversity very seriously indeed. After all,  respect is the only way forward for all of us: passengers and employees alike.

HOCHBAHN becomes climate neutral

Climate change concerns us all! It is one of the most critical global risks of our time. But we all have an important lever to reduce CO2 emissions and achieve the 1.5-degree target of the Paris Climate Agreement: urban mobility. HOCHBAHN is aware of this responsibility for the city.

The "Hamburg-Takt"

Our (climate) plan: We are increasing the offer and the service. Because the Hamburg-Takt is the most important building block of the mobility turnaround. HOCHBAHN, as the operator of subway and bus lines in this city, therefore has a central role to play.

Our strategy for 2030

We stand up for our city and its people

We move more than 1.2 million people across Hamburg every day. It's clear that we have a special responsibility for the people of this city and our team.

We like diversity

Hamburg is colorful. So is HOCHBAHN. We meet diversity with diversity. We speak out against discrimination of any kind. Because we stand for respect and take the issue of diversity seriously. Because respect is the only way forward for all of us: customers and employees.

Citizen participation

Ideas and suggestions are needed here: HOCHBAHN is expanding its subway network enormously over the next few years, creating new connections. It is involving the people of the city in the open planning process at an early stage - both digitally and on site.
