Key Benefits:
Law 16/1987, of 30 July, of Land Transport Management and its Implementing Regulation, approved by Royal Decree 1211/1990 of 28 September, have, by means of different formulas, allowed collaboration between carriers for the operation of the permanent regular services of general purpose travellers.
In this respect, Article 85 of the Regulation allows, by way of reinforcement, that dealers may use vehicles not attached to the concession to deal with increased traffic, be they of themselves or that they obtain by way of collaboration from other carriers.
On the other hand, Article 90 of the Regulation in question, based in turn on the third paragraph of Article 77 of Law 16/1987 on the Management of Land Transport, has allowed for a more stable collaboration between dealers, consisting of the use of the same vehicle to jointly serve the traffics of two or more regular transport concessions, which present contact points, without any continuity solution.
Reasons for business productivity and improvement of the quality of the benefits that the user receives from the set of the regular transport network advise, now, to further advance in the collaboration in the exploitation of the services that they are integrated, allowing the expeditions of a service to be able to attend to the traffics of another, and vice versa, collecting and leaving travelers in the stops that they have in common in those sections in which their itineraries are coincident.
Consequently, an article 90a is added to the aforementioned Royal Decree, establishing this new form of collaboration.
In its virtue, on the proposal of the Minister of Public Works, in agreement with the Council of State and after deliberation of the Council of Ministers at its meeting on October 14, 2011,
