interchange – Transmodel
definition

the scheduled possibility for transfer of passengers between two SERVICE JOURNEYS at the same or different STOP POINTS

NOTE In order to reach the destination of a trip, a passenger will have to interchange between vehicles running on different LINEs, if there is no direct service between the origin and the destination STOP POINTS. A transfer will be necessary where the passenger will leave the vehicle at a particular STOP POINT and enter another vehicle (which serves another JOURNEY PATTERN, usually on a different LINE, at the same or another STOP POINT). Such interchanges may be planned and even sometimes guaranteed. They are therefore controlled during operations.
