Abstract:	Automation and digitization in the development of the transport service offer for public transport is a challenge in the future. The goal is to achieve optimal and consistent planning across all process steps and time horizons to increase the degree of automation and the service quality. The development of a transport service offer including different line types (e.g. fast trains, regional trains) is often decomposed into three successive steps. First, a system split is carried out so that each line type can be considered individually. Secondly, line planning is done and thirdly, a timetable is developed. These steps are carried out in several iteration loops involving coordinated activities across different companies, such as railway operators and infrastructure managers. In each step, decisions are made about possible passenger travel chains (e.g. connections). We focus on the first two steps. These steps produce the transport service offer. We call this offer according to the literature service intention. The service intention is a functional description of the timetable in the form of train runs and relations between them. It was shown that the service intention is a suitable input for the timetabling process. For both steps there are mathematical optimization models support the planning decisions individually. However, there is still little literature on the interfaces of these models. In this work we want to demonstrate that it is possible to use these models systematically to generate the service intention in an automated way respecting the travel chains (e.g. in the form of suited connections) defined in the system split resp. the line planning step. Further on, we will discuss the motivation for this work and illustrate the methodology with an suited example.
