By spatially and quantitatively delineating relevant settlement areas and classifying settlement and residential structures through GIS-based analyses, including those based on methods developed at the Zentrum Alpines Bauen, targeted measures were derived to close gaps in public transit service. In the pilot area of the Gastein Valley, settlement types and mobility-relevant indicators were analyzed in order to position microtransit as a flexible feeder service to the existing public transport network. The goal is to improve accessibility, strengthen sustainable modes of travel, and promote sustainable, mobility-oriented settlement development.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Background Microtransit systems (demand-responsive transport) can make an important contribution to mobility services, especially in rural areas.
