A presentation by Jack van der Merwe (Chief Executive Officer: Gautrain Management Agency), at the Transport Forum SIG: "Cost Effective Public Transport Management Systems" on 12 May 2016 hosted by University of Johannesburg. The theme of the presentation was: "Is profitable public transport possible?"
Cricket has a long history dating back to the 16th century in England. It developed from its origins in England into an international sport played professionally across the Commonwealth. While the exact origins are unknown, evidence suggests cricket was invented by children in Saxon or Norman times in southeast England, where it was first played as a children's game for generations before being increasingly taken up by adults in the 17th century. Originally the game was played on sheep-grazed land using wool balls, sticks or farm tools as bats, and stools, tree stumps or gates as wickets.
The document provides information on several landmarks and places of interest in and around Baku, Azerbaijan. It describes Baku as the capital and commercial hub on the Caspian Sea coast, known for its medieval old city containing historic monuments like the Palace of the Shirvanshahs and the iconic Maiden Tower. It then gives brief descriptions and locations for several other notable landmarks, museums, mosques, and natural sites around Baku and elsewhere in Azerbaijan.
Public Transport Efficiency: Zurich, Vienna and On-LineAndrew Nash
Andrew Nash presented on increasing public transport efficiency in Zurich, Vienna, and through online citizen engagement tools. Zurich takes a systematic approach to prioritizing public transport through dedicated lanes, coordinated schedules and ticketing. Vienna relies more on expansive underground rail and tram networks but faces challenges from increasing auto dependence. Online tools like games and forums aim to educate citizens and generate ideas, but challenges include attracting users and gaining agency support due to concerns about complaints.
The document summarizes a panel discussion on priorities for transport in a growing London. Val Shawcross, Deputy Mayor for Transport, outlined key priorities including making transport fairer, improving air quality, and supporting new homes and jobs. Panelists then discussed challenges of accommodating increased travel demand, leveraging development around transport infrastructure to support growth, and using transport investment to improve public health through initiatives like Healthy Streets. The discussion focused on how transport policy and funding can help London achieve goals around housing, jobs, and public health.
A level-based approach to public transport network planningAndrew Nash
This document discusses a level-based approach to public transport network planning. It describes a traditional three-level system with regional rail, rapid transit, and surface transit. However, some cities have found that a two-level system with faster surface transit and more dense regional rail stations can provide similar coverage with limited additional benefit to a three-level system. The document also discusses how Zurich's successful two-level system is now facing capacity issues, and proposes solutions like differentiated regional rail services and "Metrotrams" to address this.
This document discusses carbon fiber as an alternative to steel reinforcement for repairing structures. It begins by defining carbon fiber and describing its production process. The document then outlines the history of carbon fiber and lists some of its key properties like high strength to weight ratio, rigidity, corrosion resistance, and tensile strength. Next, the document discusses how carbon fiber can be used for repairing structures in various forms like plates and wrapped sheets. Some advantages of using carbon fiber for repair are also presented, such as its high strength, low weight, durability, and reduced maintenance needs. However, the document notes that the high initial production cost of carbon fiber is a disadvantage compared to steel.

TIDE is a 3-year EU project that aims to enhance the adoption of innovative urban transport solutions across Europe. It works with 15 cities to demonstrate new measures and provides tools to analyze measures' impacts and assess their potential for transfer. TIDE developed methodologies for impact assessment and transferability analysis to help cities understand measures' effects and readiness for implementation. It shares knowledge on measures like multimodal pricing, traveler information apps, bus priority, and integrated transit authorities to encourage more widespread adoption of innovation in public transport.
1) The document discusses global trends like urbanization that are contributing to increased urban congestion and presents potential solutions like road space rationing and congestion pricing.
2) It evaluates these approaches and finds that while road space rationing addresses congestion, it is not a long term solution, whereas congestion pricing in Singapore has significantly reduced travel times and increased road safety, but requires costly infrastructure investment.
3) The document concludes that as technologies advance, governments must engage citizens to ensure accountability and transparency, and that developing countries should initially focus on improving public transportation rather than advanced technologies.
Bus Karo: Innovative Finance in Bus Transport WRI India
Bus transport financing is a global challenge. In most Indian cities, bus transport systems have fare box recovery ratios less than 1 and incur large losses. Traditional financing sources like fares, budgets and grants have limitations and are often insufficient. There is a need to tap innovative financing mechanisms like taxes on employers and commercial assets, naming rights, and leveraging existing funds. A robust institutional mechanism is also needed to effectively manage identified funding sources.

A presentation by Honourable Ismail Vadi (MEC: Department of Roads and Transport: Gauteng Provincial Government), at the Transport Forum SIG: "Cost Effective Public Transport Management Systems" on 12 May 2016 hosted by University of Johannesburg. The theme of the presentation was: "Establishing a Transport Authority in Gauteng"
Transportation planning is an integral part of overall urban planning and needs systematic approach.
Travel demand estimation is an important part of comprehensive transportation planning process.
However, planning does not end by predicting travel demand.
The ultimate aim of urban transport planning is to generate alternatives for improving transportation system to meet future demand and selecting the best alternative after proper evaluation.
Congestion management process presentation updatedpyoungkyova
The document summarizes the development of a Congestion Management Process (CMP) for the KYOVA/Huntington, WV-KY-OH Urbanized Area. The CMP was required due to the area surpassing 200,000 in population based on 2010 Census data. The purpose of the CMP is to provide a picture of current congestion, input on strategies to alleviate congestion, and feedback on project effectiveness. The CMP process involves defining objectives, developing a network, selecting performance measures, collecting/monitoring data, analyzing congestion problems, identifying strategies, implementing strategies, and evaluating strategies. The document outlines steps taken so far and the future schedule.
The document discusses using big data and new technologies to improve transport planning and operations. It provides examples of collecting lifelogging data through wearable sensors to analyze travel behavior, crowdsourced bicyclist data to evaluate infrastructure investments, and using various data sources to examine links between transport and labor market outcomes. The document emphasizes that transport systems need to be re-evaluated in some areas to better match changing job locations and needs of workers.
[e-Government Program Action Plan : Quito, Ecuador]shrdcinfo
This document outlines Quito, Ecuador's plan to improve its public transportation system. It notes that private car ownership has increased while transportation practices remain outdated, putting passenger safety at risk. The current system has challenges like overcrowding, limited access, and traffic issues.
The improvement strategy aims to make transportation more passenger-oriented, safe, and inclusive through a bus reform plan. This includes defining operational zones, a dedicated bus lane, integrated routes, and a unified fare system using smart cards. Expected results are improved bus management through technology like GPS and CCTVs to ensure safety, reduced accidents, real-time passenger information, and accurate data for future planning. The strategy seeks to transform Quito's transportation network into a sustainable
Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) plans to implement a new real-time passenger information (RTPI) and traffic management system to improve travel information and network efficiency. The system will provide multi-modal real-time travel updates and journey planning to help customers make more informed travel choices. It will also implement bus priority at traffic signals and network monitoring to improve reliability of bus and road journeys. An open data platform and market engagement were conducted to help design an integrated architectural approach using open standards. Benefits will be monitored through online engagement and journey time data analysis.
This document discusses lessons learned from 47 light rail projects. It finds that projects are more likely to succeed if they have a strong, independent organization; incremental planning; transparency; and citizen involvement. Failures often result from changing scope, interfaces between components, and lack of alternatives considered. The document also justifies light rail using a framework of efficiency, effectiveness, environment, economy and equity. Case studies show light rail can increase reliability and that accounting for reliability benefits is important for cost-benefit analyses, as demonstrated by a project in Utrecht.
The document discusses improving public transportation in Jakarta through integrated ticketing systems and providing users with better information. It argues that ticketing systems like smartcards and providing real-time arrival/route information are key to increasing ridership by making public transit more convenient and competitive with other modes of transportation. The document outlines challenges in implementing an integrated multimodal smartcard and ensuring user information is accurate, available across various media platforms, and can support easy interchange between routes and modes. It emphasizes the need for the transit authority to collect and maintain accurate network data and share this with organizations developing mobile apps and digital journey planners.
Dr Michael de Percy presented on road pricing and provision reform in Australia. He discussed the rationale for reforming the current system, including that fuel excise revenue is eroding and does not reflect road usage. While heavy vehicle charging trials showed promise, private motorists strongly oppose new road pricing. Reform faces political challenges around community attitudes that see it as a new tax despite roads being underpriced, and federal-state relations over revenue sharing would need to be addressed. Overall the talk examined the arguments for and against road pricing reform in Australia.
This document discusses intelligent transport management systems (ITMS) and their goals of improving commuter satisfaction, reliability, punctuality, and operational efficiency of bus fleets. It provides examples of automatic vehicle location systems, passenger information displays, and management information systems. A case study of Transport for London's system is described, covering features like real-time bus tracking, arrival displays at stops/terminals, and performance dashboards. Phases of implementing an ITMS are outlined, from initial familiarization to enhancing analysis and integrating additional technologies over time.

Delivered by Mr Coenie Vermaak, CEO of the Electronic Toll Collection company at a transport forum session in South Africa on road funding and economic development.
The document discusses the establishment and functions of the Gauteng Transport Authority (GTA) in South Africa. Key points include:
- The GTA was established through legislation to integrate and regulate public transport services in Gauteng province.
- Its objectives are to consolidate transport functions, integrate the transport system, foster cooperation between operators, and improve public transport planning and services.
- The GTA's responsibilities include developing a long-term strategic transport plan, regulating fares, providing infrastructure and services, and collecting transport data and statistics.
- It will be governed by a board of directors representing government and transport specialists and will work to better coordinate planning, operations, enforcement and funding of public transport.
Delivered by acting CEO of the Road Freight Association, Gavin Kelly during a ‘Road Funding in South Africa - Feedback from Operators’ event held in Midrand, Johannesburg.
Road funding from a freight forwarding and logistics perspectiveTristan Wiggill
Heavy vehicles contribute significantly to road damage and congestion but do not adequately contribute to road funding through taxes. This increases freight transportation costs and air pollution. Freight forwarders argue that the fuel levy tax model does not account for differences in fuel efficiency between vehicles and that freight is a major economic contributor that is punished under the current system. Buses receive subsidies for using roads while freight does not, despite freight's greater economic impact. The government could help by creating a sustainable freight infrastructure funding system, improving operator training, reducing inefficient freight transport costs, and reducing affiliation fees for regulatory compliance.
E-tolls: The Impact on Development in GautengTristan Wiggill
The document discusses the impact of e-tolls on development in Gauteng, South Africa. It summarizes that e-tolls were implemented to fund the Gauteng Freeway Improvement Project (GFIP) which upgraded roads to support economic growth. The GFIP reduced congestion and improved access, benefiting commercial and residential development. Studies found the GFIP created jobs and increased GDP, and that e-tolls provided savings through reduced travel costs and times that outweighed toll fees. The conclusion is that while e-tolls have some negative costs, the GFIP and tolls overall benefit the Gauteng economy.

3. 1. System Approach –
Public Transport
• Basic assumptions:
– Transport demand – is the need for the movement of people,
goods and services.
– This demand for the movement of people, goods and services
determines the design parameters of the system that is required.
– In any transport system there are usually three peak periods,
morning-, midday- and afternoon peak periods.
– During these peak periods the demand usually outstrips the
supply, on average 3 to 6 hours per day
– During the off peak periods the supply is usually higher than the
demand, on average 21 to 18 hours per day
6. 1. System Approach –
Public Transport (cont.)
• Basic assumptions (continue):
– Public Transport System Design
– Although the demand for the movement of people, goods and
services determines the system that is required.
– Once the public transport system is completed the system is run
from the supply side.
7. 1. System Approach –
Public Transport (cont.)
• Basic assumptions (continue):
– Public Transport System Design
– The routes and the time tables are developed from the supply
side, irrespective of the actual demand on the specific route. This
is crucial if one is to:
• Attract infrequent users,
• Tourists,
• Convince the maximum number of people living or working in the
metropolitan area that they don’t need a car to travel in the city, for
their everyday home-work, home-school, home-leisure and work-
work trips.
• So one cannot distinguish between high volume routes and route
with less volumes
8. 1. System Approach –
Public Transport (cont.)
• Public Transport System Design (continue)
– Must be based on accurate information
– Develop and populate a demand model to determine the current
and future movement of people, goods and services in the area.
– An example of such a model is the EMME4 model that has every
trip in the area’s origin and destination (O-D) link, with special
focus on the morning peak trips.
– Each O-D trip link must also have the following information:
– Time of the trip;
– Day of the week;
– Modal choice / modal choices; and
– Route selection.
9. 1. System Approach –
Public Transport (cont.)
• Public Transport System Design (continue)
– This model must be able to generate the current transport
system’s travel demand (calibration), and
– Future scenarios to predict travel patterns and volumes for the 10-
, 20-, 25-, and 30-year networks
– This process is very data-driven and the latest available data,
census, household survey etc. must be used.
– The demand model must be updated with any new, relevant data
– New challenge is what do we do with-, and how do we handle
“big” data in future?
– “Real-time” information;
– Instant feed-back?
– Speed of response?
– Social media?

• Rail as the backbone of an integrated public transport
system
• Protection of future priority corridors, future road
networks, passenger and freight rail networks, and
airports.
The plan further includes a vision to support and
strengthen the Gauteng Global City Region.
Geographical Information Systems and Intelligent
Transport Systems form a practical basis for the plan.
15. Sustainable Transport
• Reduce travel:
• Change travel patterns
• Regularity & extent of travel in peak periods, trip lengths,
etc.
• Shift in modes:
• Shift from: Motorised Non-motorised transport
• Shift from: Private Public transport
• Shift from Road Rail
• Technology:
• Environmentally friendly technologies
• Intelligent Transport Solutions (ITS)

23. • Zurich PT system – point of departure
– The PT system is the back-bone of the city, and the country’s
economy;
– You don’t need a private car in the city (day or night)
– You will be stupid to use a private car in the city with:
• Prohibitive prices for parking;
• Very limited parking space available;
• congestion pricing;
• Low cost public transport; and
• An efficient metered taxi’s service (door to door – expensive)

24. • Zurich
– 370 000 people stay in city
– 1 000 000 job opportunities in city
– One of the best PT systems in the world, but only
• 33.3% fare box revenue;
• 33.3% City subsidy; and
• 33.3% State subsidy.
– Reasons:
• Supply-side system
• Whole city has a PT grid of a maximum of one kilometer
• Maximum 8 minute headway during peak and minimum 15 minute
headway during off-peak, 20 hours per day

NB: System Cost = System Income
- System is viable & will operate at no cost to the Council.
- Project may proceed
- Treasury funds (BRT for SWC)
27. » Desi
• N.B. System income is a function of the fare box income
which is linked to the fare structure
• Project goes to the Mayoral Committee, who interrogate the
fare structure. After a debate they conclude:
• BRT ticket prices may not be higher than taxi-fares;
• School children & pensioners travel at half price;
• Huge discounts for loyalty customers (monthly, quarterly and yearly)
• PT fares must compensate for historical spatial distortion patterns
• (it then follows that)
PT is a social service
PT is an essential service and key to economic growth
30. 1. System Approach –
Public Transport
• What should we be monitoring if we are not focussing
on profitability?
– Efficiency and effectiveness of the system
– If the system is inefficient the fare box income (say 33.3%) can
reduce and the subsidy portion will have to be increased
– If this increase in subsidy is not possible (or budgeted for), then
the system degrades, the ridership reduces and the downward
spiral begins (Metrorail)
– People are forced to other, less efficient, modes of transport
resulting in congestion, loss of productivity and quality of life
31. 1. System Approach –
Public Transport
• How do we control efficiency and effectiveness of
public transport?
– Ensure an integrated public transport system, where there is a
link between transport planning and land-use planning (ITP’s and
IDP’s) for all three spheres of government
– Competition for a route and not on a route. This must be based on
correct data to ensure that routes are not over-subscribed through
the issuing of too many permits (CPTR-information)
– Proper law-enforcement of the permits
– Ensure common:
» PT information;
» Timetables;
» Ticketing;
» Fare harmonisation
» Modal transfer nodes
32. 1. System Approach –
Public Transport
• How do we control efficiency and effectiveness of
public transport (continue)?
– Centralised setting of priorities for CAPEX project
– Centralised point of receipt of PT subsidy and central point for the
motivation for subsidy (advocacy)
– Centralised branding, marketing & communication on PT (TfL)
– Ensure common:
– PT information;
– Timetables;
– Ticketing;
– Modal transfer nodes
Creation of a Transport Authority
35. How Will Cities Look
in 2025?
• By 2025, almost 60% of the world’s population will be
living in urban areas
• Rapid urbanisation & economic development will increase
the demand for the movement of people, goods &
services
• Global trend is towards private vehicles as the preferred
mode of transport
• 6.2 billion private motorised trips will be made every day
in cities worldwide
• Gridlock, pollution, road traffic accidents & greater
dependency on fossil fuels
36. How Will Cities Look
in 2025?
• If left unchecked by 2025 worldwide transport related
greenhouse gas emissions will be 25% higher than 2005
levels, this will:
– Put us firmly on the path towards potential catastrophic climate
change
– Transport energy bills will skyrocket
– Higher levels of energy consumption could pose a threat to global
energy security
– Traffic congestion will bring cities worldwide to a standstill
– Half a million people will be killed in road traffic accidents every year
– Potentially catastrophic climate change
37. How Will Cities Look
in 2025?
• UITP & the International Energy Agency developed an
urban mobility scenario for 2025:
– 2009 World UITP Congress in Vienna:
“Double the market share of public transport worldwide by
2025 (PTx2)”
– The effect of PTx2 will be:
• Save 170 million tons of oil;
• Reduce CO² equivalent by 550 million tons;
• Reduce urban traffic fatalities by 15%;
• Double the number of jobs in public transport operations;
• Reduce the risk & obesity & heart diseases by 50% (walking, cycling & PT)
– In 2012, PTx2 was translated into a communication
campaign called:
“Grow with public transport”
38. 2. Holistic Approach –
Public Transport
• The role of public transport in a global context
– For global cities to survive and grow (GGCR) it must develop
transport systems that:
• Gives top priority to an integrated public transport system;
• Drastically reduce the carbon-footprint of its transport system;
• Uses renewable energy sources;
• Promotes optimal modes of transport;
• Must ensure /enforce maximum shift:
– Shift from motorised to non-motorised transport
– Shift from private car use to public transport
– Shift from road to rail transport (people and goods)
