Die Weiterentwicklung des umweltfreundlichen öffentlichen Verkehrs erfolgt auf Basis des Engagements vieler Verkehrsunternehmen. Hierbei werden unterschiedliche Antriebsarten von H2-über Bio-Gas-, Batterie-Trolley-bis hin zu Batterietechniken erprobt und mit der Industrie weiterentwickelt. Der EBUS-Lenkungskreis des VDV hat viel Erfahrungen und Empfehlungen in einer Schriftenreihe zusammengefasst, um auf dem bisherigen Wissen strategisch aufbauen zu können. Darüber hinaus wurden mit der Industrie die Vorbereitungen zur Erarbeitung einer europäischen Norm zur Standardisierung der Ladeschnittstellen eingeleitet und Grundsatzpapiere erstellt. Mit Hilfe der weiteren Förderprogramme des Bundesministeriums für Verkehr und digitale Infra struktur und des Bundesministeriums für Umwelt, Naturschutz, Bau und Reaktorsicherheit können die technischen und betrieblichen Erfahrungen in die weiteren Entwicklungen einließen, so dass baldmöglichst die kommerziellen Rahmenbedingungen für einen Betrieb von Batteriebussen kalkulierbarer werden. The development of the eco-friendly public transport takes place on basis of many transport companies and their engagement. Here, different drive systems have been tested and developed in cooperation with the industry beginning from H2 via biogas, battery-trolley up to battery technologies. The EBUS steering group of the Association of German Transport Companies (VDV) has summarized a lot of experiences and recommendations in a series of publication in order to strategically work on the previous know-how. Furthermore, preparations to set up a European Norm by standardizing charger interfaces were launched and the policy papers have been prepared. With support of further development funds by the Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure and the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conversation, Building and Nuclear Safety, the technical as well as the operational experiences may have an inluence on further developments so the commercial frame condition for the operation of battery buses may be more calculable as soon as possible.

To find a solution for a sustainable mobility in the rural or sparsely populated regions is for many years one goal of the German regional policy. So -- since about 50 years -- a high number of model or pilot projects were realised to carry out new service concepts for the public transport. The paper deals with the current distribution of this new kind concepts in Germany and analyses the results. The research was done on the level of the German 'Kreise' which are responsible to run the local public transport schemes. The work was achieved in the context of a project at the Institut für Stadt- und Regionalplanung at the Technische Universität Berlin. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

With around 21 Mio inhabitants, Lagos is one of the biggest cities in Africa. For the first time since 2008, there has been a controlled public transport in the metropolis by the Lagos Bus Rapid Transit (BRT). For a long time, the planning team worked with pencil and paper - an operation control center was not available. Over the past year, the German IT-specialist IVU Traffic Technologies provided a modern ITCS, meeting European standards. The integrated solution system includes operational planning for vehicles and staff, a central fleet management system as well as a board control in busses and a real time passenger information system at stops or via app. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
