    In our modern world mobility is a matter of course. Mobility links town and country. It brings people together, transports goods from A to B. Mobility is the basis for progress and development of a country. But mobility needs a functioning infrastructure. Only infrastructure makes mobility possible. It is our job to create this possibility. And we do it every day: 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
