init innovation in traffic systems AG has been commissioned by four
regional transportation companies of the DB Stadtverkehr GmbH to set
up an extensive control system for bus services in Bavaria. As a
result, some 3,000 vehicles from Franconia to East Bavaria and from
Upper Bavaria to the Allgäu region will soon be controlled via a
single standardized system. This is the largest individual order for
init in Germany to date and increases init´s order volume to
considerably more than 100 mio. euros.

The Regio-ITCS (Intermodal Transport Control System) thus created is
the most extensive multi-location telematics system for local public
transportation in Germany and is scheduled for completion by the end
of 2010. The system will integrate the rail networks of the Deutsche
Bahn subsidiaries Omnibusverkehr Franken (OVF), Regionalbus Ostbayern
(RBO), Regionalverkehr Oberbayern (RVO) and Regionalverkehr Allgäu
(RVA), as well as several private bus operators.

The 3,000 currently integrated vehicles of the transport association
will be equipped with on-board computers (with sales function), radio
modules for GSM, GPRS and EDGE, as well as GPS receivers for vehicle
tracking and location. In the future passengers will thus benefit
from an improved service that provides more accurate information
about the current traffic situation and departure times. It is
further expected that the integration with the Bavaria-wide
information system DEFAS — once it is based on real-time passenger
information — and with DB AG´s Reisenden Informations System RIS will
ensure a more effective dovetailing of bus and rail services.

In addition to the vehicles, init will also furnish the control
centres of the regional transportation companies with hardware and
software. The multi-client capability of the Regio-ITCS will support
the integration of other bus companies in the future. The recently
closed contract with DB Stadtverkehr includes options for further
extension of the system.
