Abstract

In 2016 the revision of the German Federal Transport Infrastructure Plan 2030 (FTIP 2030) was
completed. The paper describes major methodical changes and focuses on the new benefit components “reliability” and “implicit benefit difference”. The impacts of selected new or updated indicators1 are shown by the comparison of appraisal results reflecting the assessment methodology of the FTIP 2030 and the outdated methodology from 2003, respectively. The calculations rest upon a simplified road network most suitable to crystallize the methodological differences.
