 Organisational Barriers cover all barriers with an organisational dimension which result in problems and obstacles in the design/planning and implementation process for new and more flexible transport services. On the one hand, organisational barriers may include limits to organisations’ jurisdictions in terms of administrative areas and territories, their responsibility for public transport
supply in rural areas and co-operation between these organisations. On the other hand, barriers in this Framework Category cover all barriers resulting from the resources of the operator (technological, capacity and experience) as well as the potential users (information, means of accessing information and communication). The co-ordination of different fare systems is a further important issue for discussion in this context. |

The current supply of information about public transport services in rural areas is – apart from a few exceptions – not very satisfactory. It mainly covers timetables whereas possible interchanges with other transport modes are usually absent. However, including information about new on-demand and integrated multipurpose services in an integrated information system would be difficult because of the inherent dynamic and flexible structure of these services. Hence, information about them is difficult to provide per se. Another important problem in some remote areas is the lack of availability of mobile phone services which are very useful for the provision of real-time information, for reservations etc.
