SMARTA-NET aims to support rural municipalities and transport and mobility practitioners in the delivery of a blend of formal and informal forms of mobility services. There are several shared mobility solutions that can be operated in rural areas. A very wide range of such solutions have been demonstrated in multiple European projects including SMARTA, SMARTA2, LAST MILE, MAMBA, INCLUSION, MARA, MELINDA, Hi-Reach, among others. These included Flexible Transport Services, Ride Sharing Services, and Asset Sharing Services (See adjacent figure). These become much more effective when they are coordinated or, integrated with the fixed-route bus and rail services. They can extend the coverage of the conventional public transport network, reaching additional areas and offering higher levels of service than would be feasible or affordable with larger vehicles.
