On behalf of the Federal Office of Spatial Development (FOS) this study analyses the actual status of network-based modelling for passenger and freight transport as well as availability and quality of the required data. This analysis serves as a basis for the presentation and evaluation of three fundamental development paths regarding the organisation of Federal transport modelling. The proposed path coordinator function of FOS envisages a common management of FOS, Swiss Federal Roads Authority (FEDRO) and Federal Office of Transport (FOT) which will in future coordinate the modelling on a Federal level. FOS would serve as an entry point as well as a data portal simplifying access to model-relevant data. Another proposal is the development of bimodal passenger and freight transport models including their periodical updating.
