Lower Saxony Ministry of Economic Affairs, Transport, Building and Digitalisation

Digitalisation and autonomous driving will play a key role in the future of our mobility. On the way there, digital test fields - such as the "Test Bed Lower Saxony" - are indispensable because they make a decisive contribution to the development and introduction of automated and connected driving applications. The test fields are not only used for research and testing: they can also be used to promote the social acceptance that is important for the success of this technology. The transformation of mobility in the automotive state of Lower Saxony can only succeed if politics, business, research and society work together.

Olaf Lies, Minister for Economic Affairs, Transport, Building and Digitalisation in Lower Saxony
