The operator is granted an exclusive right for the above-described operating areas within the limits of § 8a(8) PBefG. The OeDA will include provisions to adapt the transport offer within the framework defined in the OeDA to changing transport needs or financial conditions and the local transport plans in their current version as well as to other changed circumstances (such as technical developments, environmental and climate protection concerns, introduction of further public transport). The possibilities for change relate to the type and extent as well as the quality of transport services and transport tariffs. This may result in changes both in terms of the status and course of traffic, as well as in terms of timetables and tariffs, in terms of the form of operation (regular line operation or flexible forms of operation) or in terms of other aspects such as vehicle and other quality standards. As a result, traffic may change, new traffic may be added or today's traffic may be eliminated. The volume of traffic covered by the ÖDA can be reduced or expanded. Changes can take effect at the beginning of the term of the ODA. Text automatically translated in your browsing language Automatically translated
