On 16 July 2018, Siemens Aktiengesellschaft (“Siemens AG”) and Alstom S.A. (“Alstom”), (collectively, “the Parties”), pursuant to section 57 of the Competition Act (Cap. 50B) (“the Act”), jointly applied for a decision by the Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore (“CCCS”) as to whether the proposed combination of Alstom and Siemens AG’s mobility business (“SMB”) by way of a contribution by Siemens AG of the SMB to Alstom in consideration for newly issued Alstom shares (hereinafter “the Proposed Transaction”), will infringe the prohibition in section 54 of the Act, if carried into effect. For the purposes of CCCS’s assessment, the Proposed Transaction would see Siemens AG acquire sole control of Alstom.1 2. In reviewing the Proposed Transaction, CCCS contacted twenty-two (22) suppliers/potential suppliers of either metros, urban signalling systems, or rail electrification (i.e. contact lines and/or traction power supply systems)2, and three (3) customers3 (collectively referred to as “third parties”). 3. Of the third parties contacted, eleven (11) replied 4 , seven (7) of whom provided substantive responses to CCCS’s questions.5 The views of the third parties who provided substantive responses were mixed. While three (3) of the third parties did not express any competition concerns 6 , four (4) 7 indicated that they had competition concerns about the Proposed Transaction. In particular, concerns were expressed regarding competition in the market for the supply of urban signalling systems for Mass Rapid Transit (“MRT”) lines in Singapore. The competition concerns included that (i) the Parties are the key suppliers of urban signalling systems; (ii) the barriers to entry into the supply of urban signalling systems appear to be significant; and (iii) the Parties may leverage on the interoperability of their metros with their urban signalling systems to foreclose competition in the supply of metros in Singapore. 4. At the end of the consultation process and after evaluating all the information including the Parties’ submissions and the concerns raised by third parties, 1 Paragraph 8.5 of Form M1. 2 Suppliers: []. 3 Customers: []. These customers are the only customers of rail transportation products in Singapore. 4 Customers: []. Suppliers: []. 5 Customers: []. Suppliers: []. 6 Customers: []. Suppliers: []. 7 Customers: []. Suppliers: []. 3 CCCS, on balance, concludes that the Proposed Transaction, if carried into effect, will not infringe section 54 of the Act. II. The Parties to the Transaction Siemens 5.

    Mono-Rail guided Transport - From the 1902 Mono-Rail guided Bullock Cart in India to the 21th Century Centre Mono-Rail guided Los Angeles Automated Airport People Mover (LAX APM) in USA Indian Steam hauled Patiala Mono-Rail (1907-1927) preserved in running Condition in National Rail Museum at New Delhi By F.A. Wingler June 2019 1 From the 1902 Mono-Rail guided Bullock Cart in India to the 21th Century Mono-Rail guided Los Angeles Airport Automatic People Mover (LAX APM) in USA I. Mono-Rail guided Carriage Transport in India from 1902 to 1927 The first Mono-Rail guided goods carriage system, a road borne railway system, had been the Kundala Valley Railway in India, which was built in 1902 and operated between Munnar and Top Station in the Kannan Devan Hills of Kerala. It operated with a cart- vehicle, built to transport tea and other goods. The initial cart road was cut in 1902 and then replaced by the monorail goods carriage system along the road leading from Munnar to Top Station for the purpose of transporting tea and other products from Munnar and Madupatty to Top Station. This monorail was based on the Ewing System (see below) and had small steel-wheels placed on the mono-rail track while a larger wheel rested on the road to balance the monorail. The mono-rail was pulled by bullocks. Top Station was a trans-shipment point for delivery of tea from Munnar to Bodinayakkanur. Tea chests arriving at Top Station were then transported by an aerial ropeway from Top Station 5 km (3 mi) down-hill to the south to Kottagudi, Tamil Nadu, which popularly became known as "Bottom Station".

    Analytics Practicum Report - 2015 Analysing Mass Rapid Public Transportation Travel Patterns of Singapore Through Time-Series Data Mining Koh Ying Ying Trecia; Luqman Haqim Bin Ab Rahman; Singapore Management University ABSTRACT The adoption of Ezlink smart card technology allows transportation analyst to discover new insights of the consumption and lifestyle of their commuters’ in the transportation network. As smart cards contain rich data and all the transactions are in temporal sequences, it gives an opportunity to analyse the complex and voluminous time- series data using time-series data mining techniques. This is particularly interesting as there is a need to transform these rich data into actionable information and knowledge, which users can understand. Therefore, this paper seeks to explores the problem of the transportation network and validate against the implementation current policy of the free rides and discusses the use of time-series data mining techniques to achieve insights that will provides a picture on whether the policy matches with the findings. INTRODUCTION Singapore is a small country, yet it has a complex and comprehensive public transportation network. Consisting of train which can be further split apart into Mass Rapid Transit (hereinafter known as MRT), bus, light and rapid trains (Light Rail Transport, hereinafter known as LRT), and taxis, the public transport in Singapore employs the hub-and- spoke strategy; busses serve as the means of transportation within a town, and MRT trains are used for long distance travel. The Land Transport Authority governs the public transport network in Singapore. (Hereinafter known as LTA) The demand for MRT ridership has significantly increased since 1997 as it served as a cheaper or faster alternative to car or taxi for long distance travel.

  • Briefing to Analysts & Media on the New Rail Financing
    BRIEFING TO ANALYSTS & MEDIA ON THE NEW RAIL FINANCING FRAMEWORK FOR SMRT 15 July 2016 1. [Slide 3] Earlier today, it was announced that LTA and SMRT Trains have agreed to transit the North-South and East-West Lines, Circle Line and Bukit Panjang Light Rail Transit to the New Rail Financing Framework, or “NRFF” for short. SMRT welcomes the transition which will bring SMRT’s current rail lines into a financing framework that is more sustainable. This transition comes after extensive consultations with the Land Transport Authority (LTA) since 2011. 2. [Slide 4] In my brief this evening, I will give an overview of the Current Rail Financing Framework (CRFF) and its challenges for us; the structure of the NRFF including the proposed sale of operating assets; and finally, the Group’s strategy to ensure sustainable growth going forward. OVERVIEW OF CURRENT RAIL FINANCING FRAMEWORK 3. [Slide 5] SMRT Trains entered into our existing rail licence for the North-South & East-West Lines with LTA on 1 April 1998, for an initial period of 30 years until 2028. Subsequently, SMRT Trains' wholly-owned subsidiary, SMRT Light Rail obtained the licence to operate the Bukit-Panjang LRT line (BPLRT) on 6 November 1999 for an initial period of 29 years; and SMRT Trains was awarded the licence for the Circle Line (CCL) on 4 May 2009 for a period of 10 years. Under the terms of the existing rail licences, there is a possible extension of each of the licences for 30 years subject to LTA’s discretion. 4. Under the existing licences, SMRT Trains operates on an asset-heavy business model.

Fraker Spring 2010 The Transit-Oriented Global Centers for Competitiveness and Livability: State Strategies and Market Responses in Asia © 2010 by Jin Murakami Abstract The Transit-Oriented Global Centers for Competitiveness and Livability: State Strategies and Market Responses in Asia by Jin Murakami Doctor of Philosophy in City and Regional Planning University of California, Berkeley Professor Robert B. Cervero, Chair Over the past two decades, the spatial development patterns of city-regions have increasingly been shaped by global-scale centripetal and centrifugal market forces. Complex managerial tasks and specialized producer services agglomerate in the central locations of global city-regions, whereas standardized assemble lines, wholesale inventories, and customer services stretch over the peripheral locations of global production networks. One explanation for postindustrial agglomeration is the need for face-to-face interactions and knowledge spillovers among the labor-intensive business sectors. On the other hand, the spatial concentrations of knowledge-based activities are also promoted by entrepreneurial city-states’ economic development strategies. Since the 1990s, rail transit investments and urban regeneration projects have played a pivotal role in shaping competitive and livable global centers to attract foreign direct investments and qualified international workers. Despite the growing importance of city and regional planning in the global marketplace, existing studies have provided little evidence on transit-oriented urban regeneration projects particularly in global city-regions.
