Delegated Regulation

Step 1: Identification of relevant data/products

Prior to submitting a self-declaration, transport authorities, transport operators, infrastructure managers or transport on demand service providers can get in touch with the ITS contact point to clarify if they are collecting or updating any data, affected by the Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/1962 and which service level the data correspond to. The relevant datasets, sorted in two categories (static and dynamic), are listed in the Annex of the Delegated Regulation.

Step 2: Provide the relevant data through the national access point (https://www.mobilitydata.gv.at/)

If transport authorities, transport operators, infrastructure managers or transport on demand service providers collect or update data listed in the Annex of the Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/1926, the associated meta-data must be collected on the National Access Point, https://www.mobilitydata.gv.at/. The schedule for each service level must be taken into account.

Step 3: Fill-in the self-declaration form and collect all required annex information

Please refer to the download area to obtain the self-declaration form for transport authorities, transport operators, infrastructure managers or transport on demand service providers. The self-declaration form must be filled in completely and truthfully and must be signed by an authorised signatory. The information format for the required Annexes, listed on the form, can be selected individually.

Step 4: Submit the filled-in self-declaration incl. Annexes

The filled-in and signed self-declaration, as well as the Annexes, can be transmitted via e-mail in PDF format to kontakt@ivs-stelle.at or by mail to

Step 1: Identification of the concerned travel and traffic information services

Prior to submitting a self-declaration, please get in touch with the ITS contact point to clarify if your organisation is affected by the Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/1926. The organisation is affected if the company provides travel and traffic information to users and end users. This includes both ITS services and digital maps in which information is provided for at least one mode of transport. An organisation is excluded, if it acts as mere conveyer of information.

Step 2: Fill in the self-declaration form and collect all required annex information

Please refer to the download area to obtain the self-declaration form for travel information service providers. The form must be filled in completely as well as truthfully and must be signed by an authorised signatory. The information format for the required Annexes, listed on the form, can be selected individually.

Step 3: Submit the filled-in self-declaration, incl. annexes

The filled-in and signed self-declaration, as well as the Annexes, can be transmitted via e-mail in PDF format to kontakt@ivs-stelle.at or by mail to

Transport authorities, transport operators, infrastructure managers or transport on demand service providers have to provide their collected and/or updated datasets, as meta-data-entry through the national access point (www.mobilitydata.gv.at) on a non-discriminatory basis for exchange and reuse in line with the timetable per service level. They shall ensure that data updates are processed in a timely manner to make the information accessible without delay. Data is reused in a neutral, non-discriminatory and unbiased manner. The data source as well as the time of the last update must be indicated. Licensing agreements should not limit the reuse of data unnecessarily and any financial remuneration must be appropriate.

Travel information service providers rely on up-to-date static and dynamic travel and traffic data to provide travel and traffic information services. They provide route planning results to other information service providers on request. Data shall be reused in a neutral, non-discriminatory and unbiased manner. The data source as well as the time of the last update must be indicated. Any licensing agreements shall not unnecessarily restrict the reuse of data and any financial remuneration must be appropriate.

Transport authorities, transport operators, infrastructure managers or transport on demand service providers as well as travel information service providers declare, to comply with the requirements set out in the Articles 3 to 8 of the Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/1926. For the assessment of compliance by the ITS contact point the following documents are required:

a) an evidence-based declaration of compliance with the requirements set out in Articles 3 to 8 (Self-declaration form);

b) a description of the travel and traffic data listed or stored on the national access point and the travel information services available including connections with other services if applicable, as well as the information on the quality thereof (Annexes to the self-declaration form).
