To further improve convenience when using multiple transportation facilities compared to the past.SOLUTION: A Sier server 3 is configured to search a route from a departure place to a destination on the basis of operation information of multiple transportation facilities (for example, bus and train) and traffic information on roads, to perform usage procedures so that users can use the multiple transportation facilities used in the searched route. Therefore, it is possible to provide the users a route search service and an usage procedure service for each transportation agency, which have been conventionally provided separately, as a series of transportation agency usage services.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 8 【課題】複数の交通機関を利用するうえで従来と比べてより一層利便性を向上させる。【解決手段】Ｓｉｅｒサーバ３が、複数の交通機関（例えばバスと鉄道）の運行情報と道路の交通情報とをもとに出発地から目的地までの経路を探索し、探索した経路で利用する複数の交通機関をユーザが利用できるように利用手続きを行うようにした。こうすることで、従来、別々に提供されていた経路の探索サービスと、交通機関ごとの利用手続サービスとを、一連の交通機関利用サービスとしてユーザに提供することができる。【選択図】図８
