German Guidelines for Integrated Network Planning (RIN 08) Working Group 2 Meeting, COST Action TU 1002 Accessibility Instruments for Planning Practice in Europe Edinburgh, 13-14th October 2011 Univ.-Prof. Dr.-Ing. Jürgen Gerlach
The Hierarchy of roads Basis: Road Levels based on „Buchanan Report“
Network Hierarchy in Germany • Basis: Land Use - Levels of centrality: • Agglomerations (A) with an international or very large area of influence; • Upper-level centres (UC), which are administrative, service, cultural and business centres and which provide more specialised services; • Mid-level centres (MC), which cover increased or less specialised demand and which are focal points for business, industry and services; • Basic centres (BC), which provide basic services for everyday needs to people within their own local area; including lower and small centres that have to be specified in the spatial planning on the state level and on the regional level

Road categories for motor vehicle traffic and target values for median car speed
Road Network in Germany Red = AS 0, Motorways Blue = LS I, Express Roads
Categories for Public Transport and target travel speed
Categories for bicycle infrastructure and target values for travel speed for daily traffic
Service quality level for point-to-point speed for a comparative assessment of motorised individual transport and Public Transport
Example: Service quality level Motorised Individual Transport in the Region Stuttgart
