• Mass transport capacity: capability of a means of transport to transport large volumes at low costs
• Speediness: Transport duration, transport speed, capability of a means of trans-port to quickly transport goods
• Network-forming capability: capability of carrying out spatially inclusive and comprehensive transport
• Predictability: Measurement for transport time reliability (timeliness) of transports
• Flexible schedules: Frequency of transport services, capability to adapt to changed schedules and requirements
• Spatial Flexibility: Capability of spatially relocating/integrating means of trans-port and transport capacities
• Safety: Measurement for accident frequency of transports and the amount of damage
• Environmental impact: especially the use of energy, pollutant emission, and noise emission
