Urban Transport Consulting is geared both to the planning of public transport systems and to the transitions between rail and road, or between the rail network and the city. Networked transport systems, optimized transfer facilities and modern stations, customer-friendly services, safety and reliability – all these are success factors for the improvement of public transport.

DB International’s well-qualified and flexible teams can work out concepts and solutions for rail and bus transport systems that take account of the requirements of sustainable development of transport systems and the mobility preferences of the population in equal measure. In this way public transport systems can help improve travelling conditions overall, and so raise the quality of life in cities and regions.
