How international borders affect local public transport: Analyses and evaluations of cross-border agglomerations in Switzerland, France and Germany
February 2015
This study focuses on various effects of international borders on local public transport: How does it impact demand, service offer as well as framework conditions?
These questions are dealt with on the basis of four exemplary cross-border agglomerations: Geneva, Basel, Strasbourg and Lille. The analyses are based on a combination of data collected and standardised from various sources and of empirically collected data. The analyses reveal new conclusions from which a series of recommendations could be derived.
The study is published in English, with abstracts in French and German.
