The report is a good practice guide on public transport service design in rural and small town regions. It is based on experiences from real-world projects in Norway and abroad, and describes the main elements of a concept that makes public transport easy for everybody to use. The service concept combines a simple, integrated scheduled service focused on the regional centre with demand responsive services in areas with insufficient demand to support regular public transport. A travel dispatch centre should coordinate all demand responsive services and transport tasks of public responsibility, and provide customer information to users of the complete travel network in the region.
