Intraplan Consult GmbH and the Department of Transport Planning and Transport Systems at the University of Kassel have developed a guide and a "Public Transport Toolbox" for the Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure for the planning and evaluation of public transport service strategies in rural areas as part of the research project "Mobility and service strategies in rural areas: Options for action by public transport authorities and transport companies with special consideration of economic aspects of flexible forms of service".

The guide and the public transport toolbox are available free of charge to all interested users. The guide is available as a download from the Association of German Transport Companies (VDV) in the section "Passenger Transport - Expert Information - Environment, Operation & Technology" under "Planning guide "Mobility and service strategies in rural areas" with Toolbox ÖPNV".

The public transport toolbox consists of the following components:

  • FlexPlan - Estimation of passenger demand for flexible public transport services in rural areas.
  • AWirFlex - Estimation of the economic efficiency of flexible forms of public transport services
  • SimFlex - Simulation of classic and flexible forms of public transport services
  • Excel template for evaluation

The Toolbox ÖPNV can be used via a form from the VDV.
