A track guidance system for guiding a vehicle with reference to pre-specified desired values of at least one application phase, includes a script development function (3) for developing an application script that defines pre-specified desired values of application phases according to which the vehicle is to be guided, at least one track regulator (12; 12a, 12b, 12c) for guiding the vehicle with reference to the pre-specified desired values, an input function (2) for the user to develop a regulator matrix that allocates track regulators to the application phases, an application control (4) for controlling the time sequence of the application phases on the basis of the corresponding pre-specified desired values, a regulator control (10) for activating the respective track regulator relevant in the respective application phase, whereby the respectively active track regulator (12; 12a, 12b, 12c) transfers its status for control or monitoring to the regulator control (10).
