In Transports Metropolitans de Barcelona (TMB) we are committed to con- stantly improving the service we give our citizens in the metropolitan area, and we have shown it once more this year despite the economic restrictions imposed by the present situation. This is precisely the challenge we are all facing in the Group: continuing to advance towards reducing budgets.
In TMB we are aware of our role in cities as the backbone of the territory, facili- tating personal mobility and taking people to their work and the main public services, amongst other things. We are also a guarantee of sustainability by re- ducing the number of more polluting trips in private transport, and a guarantee of greater safety by reducing accidents on the roads. We have a great responsibil- ity as the integrators of all groups, by opening up public transport and making it accessible to one and all.
In 2010 we continued to go further into our commitment to the citizens by making significant improvements both in the metro and bus service and in our contribution to the company’s social responsibility in the occupational, social, environmental areas and in our discussion with our interest groups, once more making us a benchmark in accessibility, efficiency, innovation and sustainability in European public transport. This Report gives the details of the main activities we carried out in the year in this sense.
I would like to thank the whole TMB team for their dedication, especially in the difficult situation of the economy, and all of our interest groups and especially the citizens for their confidence. You all push us forward and encourage us in our wish to improve.
Assumpta Escarp i Gibert TMB Chairperson
003 Letter from the deputy executive officer
2010 was a year with historical landmarks for Transports Metropolitans de Barcelona despite the difficulties imposed by the present economic situation.
In the area of the service, we received more than 13 million more travellers than in 2009, all covered by an offer of 16,000 million places-km, a historical record. This has been helped by the extension of lines 2, 5 and 9/10 enabling the metro to reach the centre of Badalona and giving easier access to the Valle Hebrón hospital and taking a further step in the great line 9/10 project to improve mobility in Barcelona metropolitan area. Furthermore, we are particularly happy at the citizens’ opinion of TMB, as shown by the higher satisfaction indices recorded to date both in Metro and on bus.
Two important landmarks are also the presentation of the Accessibility and Environmental Sustainability Steering Plans, which reflect TMB’s commitment to an open public transport system and respectful of the environment, respectively. With respect to the first point, 100% of the bus fleet has now been adapted to people of impaired mobility, 108 of the 138 metro stations now have lifts and the gap between the train and the platform has been adapted.
In environmental protection, an ambitious investment is being carried out in bringing buses with alternative, less contaminating fuels such as natural gas or bio diesel into circulation, and four new hybrid vehicles have also been incorporated.
In the social area, TMB has presented its Foundation, which will channel the group’s social and cultural action supported on four pillars: the recovery and preservation of the vehicle histori- cal heritage, research and training around public transport, and the encouragement of cultural activities. In this last point, 2010 saw the successful holding of the Primavera Cultural and emblematic activities continued such as the short story competition and the TMB Educa pro- gramme.
This Annual Report gives an account of all of these initiatives, a report that once more has been subject to external checking in an exercise of transparency, and which, as on previous occasions, has achieved the highest qualification, A +, from the international Global Reporting Initiative.
We encourage you to read it and to take part by sending us your opinions and suggestions to ensure that, between us all, we might have the best public transport system for Barcelona and its surrounding area.

2 — A benchmark mobility network in Sant Pau/Dos de Maig. The work was completed in August at a cost of 2.1 million Euros in Hospital Clínic and 2 million Euros in Sant Pau/Dos de Maig. • In 2010, work was completed on the refurbishment of the Sant Andreu station for a total 2.5 million Euros. The improvements enabled the architectural barriers of the station to be removed and new linings to be installed on the vertical walls and the floor in more modern materials treated to combat vandalism, amongst other advantages. • The construction of a second hall at Can Vidalet station eliminated the architectural barriers. The work, which is promoted by the DGTT, was done at a cost of 8.6 million Euros. • TMB worked in 2010 on the new halls of the L4 Llacuna, Bogatell and Selva de Mar stations. The work, which was also promoted by the DGTT, had a cost of 22.8 million Euros. The new halls make these stations accessible to people of impaired mobility by including lifts and removing architectural barriers and therefore follow the framework of evacuation criteria observed by FMB in its stations. The work done in 2010 focused on the new hall in the Selva de Mar and the Bogatell stations. • In September, the new hall of the Arc de Triomf exchange (L1 and Renfe) was brought into service. The work was promoted by the DGTT and was intended to adapt the space to people of impaired mobility. • Different connection works are under way on L9 with the remaining metro lines: Torrassa (L1), Zona Universitària and Lesseps (L3), Guinardó (L4), Collblanc (L5) and La Sagrera (L1, L5).
At 31 December 2010, the metro network had 140 stations, of which 98 are single, 15 with connections and 4 with two connections.

2 — A benchmark mobility network Innovative communication systems on bus
In the area of bus, innovative systems are being spread to communicate with users, such as the iBus, SIU and PIU projects, which improve information on the service and increase speed and reliability in transmission. As was planned in the objectives for 2010, work has been done on implementing the iBus system to give the times of the next bus coming to the stop, and the SIU user information system on the bus across all of the lines, and the number of User Information Screens has been increased. • The iBus system enables real-time provision of the times that the next buses will pass the stops, to be reported to users via SMS, Smartphone and Internet. Throughout the year, the number of lines including the service was increased, so that on 31 December 2010, all of the regular lines already had this. • The User Information System (SIU) provides information referring to the stop where the bus is, the next stop to be made and the connections with other bus and metro lines, both visually and acoustically to passengers by means of screens and loudspeakers inside. All of the regular bus lines have this user information system and work is being done on developing a synthesiser that enables bilingual (Spanish/Catalan) information to be given to users to make the audio system more accessible and effective and to benefit all of the visually impaired. • 228 stops now have User Information Screens: 180 with information screens connected to the mains and 48 with screens powered by solar energy. The User Information Screens visually and acoustically report the time that the bus will arrive at the stop and all possible disturbances in the service. • In 2010, a Customer Information Manager was set up to automate warnings of planned alterations in the network, which will allow useful information to be provided regarding the service.
New image for signalling and information
During the year, a series of actions were carried out to signal and inform metro and bus cus- tomers of the infrastructure and refurbishment work carried out on the network.
In Metro, particular mention must be made of the frequency map and line route for new openings on the network, the production of area plans of several stations, the updating of the metro guide, the introduction of the new Catalan local railway network, signs of the prices for 2011 and stickers for informative requirements.
On the bus network, the new ‘Give way’ sign has been applied in all buses and ‘Hybrid Bus’ in vehicles of this kind. Work was also done on the information proposal agreed with the EMT concerning which information must appear on the solar posts at bus stops in Barcelona and QR codes were introduced in all bus shelters. The deployable bus plan has also been rede- signed, as well as the metro guide edition in Braille.
The Graphic Identity Manual was prepared in 2010, a new, leading code of information ex- pressed through the new exclusive Helvética TMB type (designed by Mario Eskenazi), which is not only inviting, but also coheres the present codes and identities of the TMB, TB and Metro trademarks to assure an organised, integrated evolution of all existing and new sub brands that that ties all of the managed activities, services and products.

059 3.1. Who integrates TMB 3 — Our people MORE THAN 8,000 EMPLOYEES
TMB’S active payroll at 31 December 2010 was 8,037 employees. These include 623 em- ployees under partial retirement in relation to the relief contract, working 15% of the annual work time at most as a result of the application of the collective covenant and labour regula- tions. The Telefèric de Montjuïc had a team of 22 people at 31 December 2010 (four drivers in charge and 18 auxiliaries).

The average annual even payroll (in terms of hours per employee and year) in TMB was 7,370.09 employees in 2010, an increase of 218.75 over the previous year.
In the case of Ferrocarril Metropolità de Barcelona (FMB), the payroll was 3,319.27 em- ployees, 149.40 more people than the previous year. This growth has basically focused on the management of L5, due to its extension from Horta to Vall d’Hebron, on the manage- ment of L1, due to temporary contracting and the extraordinary need for customer attention agents due to the structural requirements derived from Renfe’s reduced service from April to September due to the work carried out on la Sagrera, on the management of L9/10 to bring new sections into service, and also L9/10, on rolling stock and support for the metro network.
Regarding the average even payroll of Transports de Barcelona (TB), this was 4,050.82 em- ployees, 69.35 people up on the previous year. This increase was mainly concentrated on the Horta and Ponent Business Operative Centres (CON) and was backed up by the application of the new working conditions of the 2009-2012 covenant.

SELECTION PROCESSES
Staff management in FMB
556 new contracts were made in 2010 in the area of Metro. 99 temporary contracts became permanent and an agreement was signed with the Labour Tribunal of Catalonia to enable the temporary contracting of the Customer Attention Agents at weekends and in the summer.
The new contracts mainly replied to the consolidation of the automatic line project started in previous years. Amongst other incorporations and internal promotions, a significant aspect is the incorporation of 196 Customer Attention Agents for the conventional lines.
The large participation in the selection processes of almost 13,000 people is noteworthy.

Staff management in TB
244 work contracts and 317 modifications or contractual renewals and extensions were made throughout the year in TB. As usual, more promotions were given than external selections made, which basically focused on basic posts (operators and drivers).
A special note must be made of the increase in the training requirements in processes of promotion. Specific technical tests have been brought in and greater office computer aware- ness is required in processes where this was not traditionally necessary. These two factors are the visible reflection of where the evolution of professionals with potential among the staff is directed.

064 3.2. Qualified staff 3 — Our people INCREASE IN TRAINING
In 2010, there was an increase in training both in Metro and Bus, with 1,931 and 722 cours- es, respectively.
In Metro, the proportion of the payroll trained rose to 92%, although a fall was seen in the number of hours per person attending due to the training carried out in the new automatic lines (L9/10 and L11).
Regarding Bus, fewer people were reached (60% of the payroll) basically because no massive training action was carried out in the year as the core spending from 2009 on eco-driving was complete and as training had commenced in the last quarter to achieve the Certificate of Professional Aptitude.

065 The training projects in Metro in 2010 were: • The performance of the training plan for automatic lines (L9/10 and L11). • The revision of the welcome programme for the Customer Attention Agents in
the summer, which will be used in 2011. 3 — Our people • Coaching for Security Coordinators. • Revision of the necessary skills and requirements for approving internal and external trainers, so that they might act as suitably trained teaching staff. • Different lines of e-learning for automatic lines, languages, office information technology and prevention of occupational risks, by way of a pilot test.
As for Bus, the training focused on: • Approval of 20 internal trainers in the different specialities of the Professional Aptitude Certificate. Furthermore, the pedagogical skills and techniques of 19 participants were reinforced to give them better tools for trainer training. TB has the Professional Aptitude Certificate training centre in Catalonia with the largest number of certified, approved trainers, which gives greater flexibility when programming courses. • Performance of eleven Professional Aptitude Certificate courses, with a total of 220 participants and 7,700 training hours. • Creation of an improvement team with multidisciplinary members from all operations, in order to reform the present Accident Prevention Programme and integrate it into eco-driving. This programme will be finished in 2011, and all of the staff directly related to its performance will be trained and recycled.
The satisfaction index of those attending the courses in TB was 3.45 out of 4. In Metro, the score was 3.10, also out of 4.
Three welcome sessions were carried out in the year wit a total of 40 attendees (14 Metro operators, 12 Bus operators and 14 people off covenant).
With respect to the staff of Telefèric de Montjuïc, these were trained in first aid.
As for training aimed at functional areas giving support to the Metro, Bus and Telefèric de Montjuïc business, this was given to 191 people.

066 PEOPLE DEVELOPMENT
TMB contributes to the personal and professional development of its staff with the men- tioned training plan and by carrying out regular assessments of work to enable possible internal promotions wherever necessary. 3 — Our people
Other actions in this area in 2010 include the modification of the Operation Manager promo- tion process to make the tests more suitable and adjust them to the requirements of the post.
In order to improve the welcome and to help people coming into the company for the first time to adapt to their post, new Incorporation training was set up for the Rolling Stock Managers, and the same thing was done with people promoted to the post of storekeepers.
Another activity that must be highlighted is the performance of the skills training pro- gramme for the staff of Group 3 of the Directorate General of Bus to contribute to mobility in line with organisational needs. These actions will be spread to the rest of the areas in 2011.

TMB carries out actions aimed at guaranteeing equal treatment and opportunities between men and women, at facilitating conciliation between working and family life, at creating spaces of communication through which the people working in the company can talk and establish mechanisms to encourage the workers’ continued bond with the company at the end of their working life.
PROMOTION OF EQUALITY AND CONCILIATION
In the area of equality policies, it is necessary to highlight the study carried out on the present situation of the use of non-sexist language in TMB. In this sense, a document has been drawn up of recommendations and procedures for using language that keeps sex equality in mind.
Regarding the integration policies, this year 16 people were brought in with some physical, psychical or sensorial disability.

As for conciliation between working and personal life, in TB exceptions have been made to the rule of choosing drivers based only on seniority in order to conciliate working and fam- ily life (possibility of being a replacement in some cases, possibility of changing Business Operative Centre or changing calendar out of the period).
In Metro, a study was made of how to improve the present measures of conciliation be- tween personal needs and work time among the group of Customer Attention Agents. The study identified the principal situations that make conciliation difficult, the most frequent demands of the group and the measures that might help. At the end of this phase, a feasibil- ity study was performed and some proposals were drawn up, which, being related to work organisation, are subject to negotiation with the workers’ representatives.
068 SOCIAL BENEFITS AND PENSION PLANS
The TMB staff have certain social benefits specified in the Collective Covenant for all em- ployees regardless of their working day, which contemplate: the free use of the TB and FMB services by employees and relatives, help for nurseries, broader leave than that stipulat- 3 — Our people ed in the Workers’ Statute, etc. Around 8% of the workers are not covered by a Collective Covenant, but enjoy the same social benefits as the others.
In 2010, the first edition of the ‘Help for doing sports, cultural and social activities for TMB employees’ was started up. 10 activities were carried out with a total of 455 participants. These included the TMB football league, tai chi activities, the TMB choir, the group of friends of literature, the athletics group, plastic arts group, etc.
On 29 April the company held its binding event, an event at which eight employees were paid homage to for their connection with the company for 25 years.
Regarding salaries, all TMB workers earn above the minimum interprofessional salary, as shown in the following table:
Minimum Interprofessional Salary 2010 8,866.20
MInimum salary TB-Group C, level 1 20,284.23
MInimum salary FMB-Guard 25,052.42
Salaries in TMB are always related to the different posts and no distinction is made by sex. It can be said that there is no salary difference between men and women in TMB.
To favour equality and conciliation of personal needs and work time, TMB offers a social and legal-labour assistance service. Throughout the year 395 interventions were made on staff from Metro and 370 from Bus. The following were the main actions taken:
• Assistance in processes of separation, children’s or relatives’ disabilities, direct relative addictions, family problems due to dependency, etc. • Requests for advice, consultation or guidance concerning specific problems that might be related to work (allowances, leave, reduction of the working day, mediation in conflict, advances and loans, etc.), or society and the family (adoptions, problems of disabled and the elderly, special therapies, processing dependence, etc.), that might cause alterations in personal or working life. Queries were also attended on the allowances of the different administrations and external services (help for special education, teleassistance services, disability certificates, etc.). • More than 150 people benefited from help from the Metro and Bus Social Assistance Fund. • Participation in the Commission for Resolving Cases of Harassment and in the Volunteering Promotion Commission.

070 Internal dialogue
To strengthen the bonds between the staff, different actions were carried out during the year to encourage the workers to take part in the continuous improvement of the processes, tools and installations. Some of these actions were the following: 3 — Our people • 29 June, 14th Participation Systems Meeting in the Barcelona Auditorium with 61 workgroups (33 from Metro); 268 Individual Improvement Initiatives (214 from Metro) and 17 Metro Improvement Sessions with 489 employees (313 from Metro). • Presentations of five quarterly projects in the Barcelona Metropolitan Area building. • Four improvement sessions to reduce work accident injuries. • Seven working breakfasts with 97 employees.
In 2010, the internal communication service presented the Internal Communication Steering Plan approved in 2009, with the following objectives: • To communicate TMB’s corporate and strategic policy to achieve more involvement and a better working climate. • To strengthen the emotional bond and the pride of belonging to TMB among the employees. • To facilitate socio-labour relations. • To enhance leadership styles that cause positive synergies among the managers and their collaborators.
This Plan will enable TMB to build a strong corporate culture for its future along with the workers and to be a benchmark in transparency and good government in the area of internal communication.
TMB has different internal communication channels and tools: • Corporate intranet: In 2010 work was done on the contents of the new intranet and the new warning protocol. • TMB blog: The space has two sections: information repository (minutes of meetings, proposals, etc.) and a section of questions and answers where workers can anonymously ask questions related to the negotiation and their jobs and can see the repercussions of the measures negotiated individually (particular cases) or in the group.
071 • i-CON: This is a communicative tool intended to explain questions that most directly affect the people and their work centre. In the Horta and Ponent Business Operative Centres these already began to be published in 2009, but it was in 2010 when this kind of communication was consolidated in the four bus centres.
Six issues of the i-CON have been prepared and published in Horta and Ponent 3 — Our people respectively, four issues of the i-CON for Zona Franca and two issues for Triangle. • Línia TMB: In 2010 47 issues of the Línia TMB publication were drawn up and sent by e-mail to all TMB staff. • Preparation and distribution of 11 issues of the Hora Punta and GenTMB magazines, with an average circulation of some 4200 copies (15,000 up to the June issue) and some 2,000 copies (12,000 up to the June issue), respectively. Both magazines were also prepared in digital format. The fall in the edition of paper issues has been due to the reduction of expenses in the present economic situation, which has allowed the magazine to be sent to all staff. The new design was brought in with the 100th issue of Hora Punta. • Preparation of the Annual Report 2009 in digital version with the A+ qualification by the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI). • Plans in the Driver Information System. A project was developed that, in a first phase, contemplates the definition of screens where the plans are shown of the alterations of the service on the bus driver console, so that they can see the information available to the user at all times. This will be developed in 2011.

072 3.4. Health and safety at work 3 — Our people
The protection and promotion of the health of the team is essential in TMB. The company is concerned at guaranteeing the safety of the staff by working on preventing risks and moni- toring the health and physical and mental well-being of the employees through different programs and campaigns.
In this sense, TMB worked in 2010 on developing and introducing the regulation for managing prevention in order to move forward to integrating risk prevention in all areas of the company.
PREVENTION AWARENESS-RAISING AND TRAINING CAMPAIGNS
In the area of team awareness raising, different communication campaigns were carried out that seek to make people aware of the importance of watching over one’s health: • General campaign to enhance the preventive culture: Update of the webs of the Health, Safety and Labour Well-being Service and the preparation and periodic distribution in digital format of the informative bulletin Health and Prevention Legislative Developments. • Accident prevention campaign: Posters and leaflets were prepared for distribution around the work centres and another campaign was drawn up for preventing accidents related to the consumption of alcohol, drugs and/or medicines before and during work hours. Special attention must also be drawn to the publication of five safety sheets in the GenTMB magazine and the publication of brief safety advice in the intranet highlights section. • The workshop communication campaign of ‘Healthy nutrition and guided purchase in a supermarket’, and ‘Healthy cuisine and a visit to the La Boqueria’ market which took place from April to June. • Agreement with the Barcelona Sports Institute, as well as with 35 sports centres. • Promotion of the campaign for using the stairs in the work centres.
As for the training sessions carried out throughout the year by the Occupational Risk Prevention Unit, six sessions were carried out with a total of 22 people attending for corpo- rate personnel, 93 specific training sessions for Metro staff with 1,024 people attending, and 14 specific training sessions for TB staff with a total of 90 attendees.
Regarding the training carried out by the Health Unit, 35 training sessions were given for operations personnel and two sessions for updating skills in relation to preventing occupa- tional risks for Infrastructure Maintenance staff, in the case of Metro, and training sessions for the group of 55 rescuers in handling the automatic defibrillators, in the case of Bus.
073 HEALTH SURVEILLANCE AND PROTECTION
With respect to protecting health in the area of Metro, the risks of different departments were reviewed and 33 inspections were carried out to check safety conditions in the facili- ties. 41 visits were also made by the nursing team to the work centres. 3 — Our people
An emergency and evacuation drill was carried out in the Can Zam workshop and 16 proce- dures were drawn up relative to risk prevention regulations in Metro, amongst other measures.
In the case of Bus, the environmental conditions (temperature and humidity) in the Business Operations Centres were reviewed, 33 visits were made by the nursing team to the work centres and the need was studied of having automatic defibrillators, as the most outstanding measures.
Throughout the year, 1,709 health checks were made on Metro and 2,819 checks in Bus, without considering those that were unplanned related to changes in category, returning to work after absence due to illness, initial and reintegration following leave or new con- tracting to cover summer vacancies. What’s more, vaccines were given against tetanus and diphtheria, hepatitis B and seasonal flu to different workers. A large part of payroll followed the activities aimed at promoting sports activity and preventing illnesses caused by obesity, tobacco and stress.
In 2010, a tender was put out to adjudicate the health care services (medical checks on incoming staff, rehabilitation and physiotherapy services, preventive and palliative treat- ments, diagnostic tests, etc.), in order to simplify the administrative, medical and account- ing management. This change is a considerable improvement for the worker, as it enables different diagnostic tests, treatment and visits to be given in the same centre or at least in the same organisation.
TMB HEALTH AND SAFETY COMMITTEES
The TMB Health and Safety Committees are made up of: • 14 members in Metro: seven prevention delegates by the workers’ representatives and seven by the company. • 16 members in Bus: eight prevention delegates by the workers’ representatives and eight by the company.
In the Health and Safety Committee in Metro, 11 ordinary sessions were carried out during the year, two extraordinary sessions, 51 sector or thematic meetings (eight on Infrastructures, seven on Rolling Stock and six on Operations, six on Revision of the Circulation Regulation, etc.), and 25 work meetings.
One outstanding point was the 27 joint visits with prevention delegates in the work centres and facilities and the 87 actions and advisory meetings on different aspects related to pre- venting occupational risks.
In the Health and Safety Committee in Bus, 12 ordinary sessions were carried out in the year, 25 extraordinary and five single theme or work meetings.
There were also 11 joint visits made with prevention delegates in the work centres and facili- ties and 32 actions and advisory meetings on different aspects related to both general and special occupational risk prevention in TB.

078 SIGNING OF NEW TB COVENANT FOR 2009-2012
On 20 January 2010 the negotiation of the Collective Covenant of Buses in TMB was closed for the years 2009-2012 and was signed by the representatives of the Management and the CGT, ACTUB and SIT unions, which accounted for two thirds of the Bus Company 3 — Our people Committee. It was not signed by the representatives of the other two unions at the table, UGT and CCOO.
The main points of the new covenant include the two days of weekly rest for the whole pay- roll, the application of Royal Decree 902/2007 with the daily rest times provided for driving staff, and the guarantee of maintaining the workers’ purchasing power.
The implementation of the content of the covenant required intense work on the part of the Paritary Commission and the Work Commissions of Administration, Operation, Rolling Stock and Workshops, and the Permanent Commission of the Company Committee. The main agreements reached are the following: a) The approval of all applicable work calendars and the holiday periods for the different groups of the company. b) The general choice of driving services, with the application of the new regulation to conciliate family and working life and the adhesion of the group to the different forms of rest time. c) The programming of consultation on elections for the groups outside driving. d) Agreement was reached with the whole of the Company Committee on the Organisational Reflection of Rolling Stock and Installations, consisting of an organisational plan to improve the processes by optimising the organisation, the procedures and the use of automation technologies. e) Information was given on the RETBUS project by which the network and the service offered to customers is intended to be improved.

Environmental sustainability in TMB is based on the following criteria: • To ensure that environmental protection is carried out by landmarks and specific directives of behaviour in all areas of activity of the company. • To reduce the environmental impact caused by atmospheric emissions, injury and disposal of water and waste generation. • To periodically review the degree of environmental protection in order to detect weaknes- ses and to have the necessary improvement actions. • The continuous improvement and prevention of contamination to achieve more sustaina- ble development through the moderate use of energy and water and by environmentally correct management of the products used. • To inform and broadly train all workers on the environmental aspects of their activity, and to encourage them so that their behaviour at work might reflect the environmental aware- ness of the whole organisation. • To require suppliers and subcontractors to have similar environmental awareness to that of TMB. • To have information on the environmental works and actions taken to improve the protec- tion of the environment available to any people who might be interested.
082 4.1. The Environmental Sustainability Steering Plan 4 — Protection of the environment
TMB in 2010 approved the Environmental Sustainability Steering Plan. In order to make sustainable mobility a benchmark, this Steering Plan contemplates three strategic lines: in- vestigation into maximum eco efficiency, minimisation of the impact on climate change and the quality of the air and the fostering of a culture of sustainability. These strategic lines are based on 12 objectives:
Operative perspective (metro and bus operations)
• PO-1: To increase energy efficiency and the use of renewable energies. • PO-2: To optimise water management. • PO-3: To prevent and reduce waste generation. • PO-4: To reduce atmospheric and acoustic contamination: emissions, noise and vibrations. • PO-5: To plan and manage the public transport network with criteria of environmental sustainability. • PO-6: To encourage the design, use and maintenance of sustainable technologies (fleet). • PO-7: To design, manage and maintain the infrastructures in a sustainable manner.
Internal perspective
• PI-1: To include sustainability criteria in the purchase of products and services. • Pl-2: To internally encourage a culture of environmental sustainability. • Pl-3: To design and implement a system of environmental management (SGMA).
External perspective
• PE-1: To nurture the culture of sustainable mobility among citizens and to increase TMB’s market share and reputation. • PE-2: To enhance public transport through dialogue with interest groups and synergies with the administration and other operators.
These strategic objectives are developed and specified in different projects, which have the corresponding distribution of responsibilities, management mechanisms and budgetary assignment.
In short, the Environmental Sustainability Steering Plan is inspired by the corporate view and values of TMB, which are no other than to continue working to improve the quality of life of citizens and to advance towards a more sustainable society that is more respectful of the natural and social surroundings.
083 By preparing this Plan, TMB intends to involve the whole of the organisation to make environmental sustainability part of their daily activity. It also wishes to enhance its role as the main player of metropolitan transport by new forms of transport based on applying more efficient and less polluting new technologies 4 — Protection of the environment
4.2. Environmental management
In 2010, TMB approved the Environmental Sustainability Corporate Policy which has the objective of developing the Environmental Sustainability Steering Plan and of working to implement an environmental management system in accordance with the ISO 14001/2004 standard and the EMAS 761/2001 European Regulation.
This Steering Plan in fact contemplates the ‘TMB Table of indicators of environmental be- haviour according to ISO 14001/EMAS’ project to meet the PI-3 objective (to design and implement an environmental management system).
The project consists of implementing a tool to monitor TMB’s environmental behaviour on-line by presenting indicators of the consumption of water, energy, materials, waste gene- ration and emissions.
Investment in the environment in Metro in 2010 amounted to 136,000 Euros and the ex- penses incurred in protecting and improving the environment in the same period amounted to 1.04 million Euros.

085 4.3. A more sustainable bus fleet 4 — Protection of the environment
The environmentalisation of the bus fleet is the main project of the TMB Environmental Sustainability Steering Plan in order to carry out the PO-6 objective (to develop the design, use and maintenance of sustainable technologies in the fleet). It consists of renewing the bus fleet by introducing new technologies and new more efficient, less polluting fuels. These technologies enable the environmental impact of the activity of Transports Metropolitans de Barcelona to be reduced.
The measure proposes including new hybrid and advanced diesel technology, compressed natural gas or hydrogen vehicles in the bus fleet, the installation of particulate and NOx filters in Euro I-II-III diesel vehicles and the transformation of diesel vehicles into hybrid.
COMPRESSED NATURAL GAS
On 21 April 2010, Gas Natural and TMB signed a collaboration agreement in order to make improvements to the urban bus fleet in order to reduce their polluting emissions. The agre- ement covers the replacement of 204 diesel buses for vehicles driven by natural gas, a me- asure which would enable the annual emissions of NOx (nitrogen oxides) to be reduced by over 346 tonnes.
As part of the agreement in 2010, TMB adjudicated the purchase of 80 new buses driven by compressed natural gas, 28 articulated vehicles and 52 standard vehicles. These new buses began to arrive at the end of the year and will come in by mid-2011.
The remaining 124 vehicles will be brought in progressively before 2015, so the TMB gas vehicle fleet will reach 500 units.
The agreement also contemplates expanding the TMB logistics base in the Zona Franca by bringing in four new natural gas reloading points. This measure is intended to assure the co- ach house’s capacity to house and refuel the 500 natural gas buses the fleet will have by 2015.
The two institutions will also develop a research project to turn natural gas buses into hybrid vehicles by incorporating electric motors.
086 BIO DIESEL
After the test carried out in 2006, TB continues to operate the whole of the Ponent coach house fleet (122 buses) with 30% mixed bio diesel. Bio diesel is a renewable fuel based on vegetable oils and therefore reduces energy dependence on oil and also the emissions of greenhouse effect gases.
HYBRID VEHICLES 4 — Protection of the environment TMB come down strategically on the assessment and/or use of hybrid buses, a technology that is highly advanced and may be offered to standard vehicles within a few years to bring in the environmental benefits. In 2010, four new hybrid vehicles were brought into the fleet, which consume 30% less fuel.
TMB is specifically taking part in three large projects to push the use of hybrid buses: • Castrosua Hybrid Prototype: TMB was the first operator in Spain to bring this vehicle into service on a conventional line in December 2008. The prototype circulated on TMB lines until April 2009. Finally, in 2010, Castrosua delivered three units of this vehicle to TB. • MAN Hybrid Prototype: In September 2010, the company MAN delivered the first unit of its hybrid bus circulating in Spain to TMB. As in the case of the Castrosua vehicle, the result of the test with the first prototype was so favourable that the pre-series vehicle was requested in order to gain experience on regular lines with passengers, with a view to making future purchases. • RETROFIT Project: Along with Siemens, Edag and Noge, TMB has built a prototype hybrid bus by converting a combined diesel and electric vehicle. This is an innovative, pioneering idea in Europe.
The Retrofit project develops the hybrid vehicles by means of a procedure in which the diesel engine, connected to an alternator, produces electricity when needed, without this affecting the driving, and this energy is stored in condensers. The driving is carried out by two electric motors which, connected to the drive system, drive the bus on accelerations and rises, and generate electricity when going downhill in order to recharge the batteries.
At 31 December 2010, this installation has been carried out in four buses. The rate of insta- llation will be increased as new standard compressed natural gas coaches come into use, in order to increase the number of finished vehicles planned for 2011. Barcelona will therefore be one of the 10 cities in the world and the only one in Spain using this new technology.

INSTALLATION OF ANTI-POLLUTANT FILTERS IN TMB BUSES
In 2010, higher output filters began to be brought in in order to reduce nitrogen oxide and suspended particle emissions in the diesel buses, specifically in those classified as Euro I- II- III (previous to 2005). These filters eliminate around 90% of the solid particles and 60% of the nitrogen oxides. With these accessories the vehicles now have emission levels of be- tween Euro V and the most demanding European standard, EEV (clean or environmentally improved vehicle), according to the tests carried out in the IDIADA laboratory. The envi- ronmental project of the diesel bus fleet dates back to Order 152/2007 of the Ministry of the Environment and Housing of the Government of Catalonia, which contains the plan of action for improving the quality of the air in metropolitan municipalities.
By the end of 2010, 450 filters had been adjudicated and 120 had already been assembled in vehicles. This measure, along with the purchase of more compressed natural gas and hybrid buses, will turn the TMB bus fleet into the cleanest in Europe in the short-term.
ECOTRANS PROJECT
Since 2007, TMB has taken part in the Cenit Ecotrans project led by the company CAF. The aim of this project is to resolve the challenges of urban public transport by researching and generating the necessary technologies to make urban public transport more attractive for passengers and more energy-efficient at the same time.
Ecotrans is a four-year project. In the third year, TMB took part by defining what an envi- ronmentally improved bus network could be like, and this has become the network of the RetBus project.
EFFICIENT BUS MODEL, RETBUS
This is the principal project of the Environmental Sustainability Steering Plan for achieving the PO-5 objective (planning and managing the public transport network with sustainabi- lity criteria).
A study has been made of the proposal made by Barcelona City Hall and TMB, with the collaboration of Catalonia Polytechnic University.
As part of this project, the company plans its application and the definition of conventional (performance similar to the present network), large capacity (larger, faster buses on the lar- ge axes) and proximity (district buses) service levels.
ENERGY CONSUMPTION
In 2010, the consumption of the different kinds of fuel on the fleet was as follows: • Diesel: A total 17.02 million litres were consumed, which is 3.35% down on the previous year. This fall is in line with the increase of the bus fleet using alternative fuels such as natural gas and bio diesel. The individual average consumption of diesel in 2010 was 61.25 litres/100 km,
088 which is a small increase as compared with the previous year, when it was 60.85 litres/100 km. In recent years, there has been a process to replace diesel driven buses with vehicles using more ecological fuels such as compressed natural gas and bio diesel. Whereas in 2004, 93% of the fleet was formed by vehicles driven by diesel, in 2010 the weight of such buses had fallen to 57%. • Compressed Natural Gas: The fleet driven by compressed natural gas engines consumed a total 8.49 million kg, which is an increase of 12.32% over the previous year. This increase was due to the larger number of vehicles driven by this fuel. Furthermore, individual consumption of these vehicles with compressed 4 — Protection of the environment natural gas was an average 65.42 kg/100 km, 1.76% more than in 2009. • Bio diesel: The fleet driven by bio diesel in 2010 consumed a total 3.54 million litres, 0.78% down on 2009. As for individual consumption, this was an average 59.47 litres/100 km, 1.33% lower than the previous year.

The Sagrera centre has a provisional licence, having passed the initial control, and the licen- ces for Vilapicina, Roquetes and Sant Genís have been approved.
ENERGY CONSUMPTION
The total amount of energy consumed by the fleet of trains in circulation in 2010 was 207.95 million kWh, an increase of 6% over the previous year as a consequence of the increase in the total number of coaches-km due to the line extensions.
The average individual consumption of the fleet was 249.1 kWh/100 coaches-km, an incre- ase of 2.3% over 2009.

EXTERNAL ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY COMMUNICATION PLAN 4 — Protection of the environment
The principal project of the TMB Environmental Sustainability Steering Plan to meet the PE-1 objective (to foster a culture of sustainable mobility amongst the citizens) is to imple- ment an Environmental Sustainability External Communication Plan.
Sustainability has therefore been brought in as the principal axis of the communication stra- tegy of the Marketing Plan 2010, both with respect to the content of the messages and the elements or supports to be used in the campaigns.
One of the most representative actions of this Environmental Sustainability External
Communication Plan is the CO2 x Flowers campaign, which consists of encouraging the use of public transport to reduce greenhouse effect gas emissions and thus to combat climate change.
The starting gun to the plan was the creation of the canviemco2xflors.tmb.cat website in 2009, where users were able to make a virtual flower. The last step was an actual planting session in 2010 in the gardens of the Diagonal Mar Park, in which more than 200 children took part. The aim was to raise awareness on the importance of using public transport as opposed to private. The web now has more than 3,700 virtual flowers planted.
What’s more, between 22 and 28 November, the ‘Great TMB Sustainable Challenge’ was held, a digital game through Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, Spotify and YouTube in order to make the participants aware of the amount of CO2 that can be avoided if we use public transport.
The competition consisted of 10 tests that were carried out in the TMB profiles in the social networks and web sites. The first challenge consisted of bringing five friends into the cause of reducing CO2 emissions and labelling them in a message to be left on the TMB Facebook wall.
A total of 411 people took part in this digital game, and very good comments were received in all of the networks.
PLAN OF ENVIRONMENTAL COMMUNICATION, TRAINING AND PARTICIPATION
Through the Environmental Communication, Training and Participation Plan, TMB wishes to meet the PI-2 objective (to internally foster a culture of sustainability) of its Environmental Sustainability Steering Plan.
The plan contemplates the implementation of signalling and communication systems to encourage energy, water and paper savings in all TMB centres, and the integration of envi- ronmental aspects in the Internal Communication Plan, the Staff Training Plan and the par- ticipation actions both with respect to including the content of the actions and the support and/or material used to develop them.
INFRASTRUCTURE DESIGN, CONSTRUCTION AND MAINTENANCE WITH ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY CRITERIA
By means of the ‘Infrastructure design, construction and maintenance with environmental sustainability criteria’ project, TMB wishes to achieve the PO-7 objective (to sustainably design and manage infrastructures) of its Environmental Sustainability Steering Plan.
091 The following actions are considered in this sense: • Environmental choice of temperature control systems: provision of hygienic renewal air at a temperature below room temperature, radiating floor heating, facade solar control by applying the lines controlled by a centralised system, centralised control of each of the temperature-controlled areas, etc. • Efficient installations: high efficiency lighting, sectorised lighting system; presence detectors in places used sporadically, low energy consumption lifts, low water consumption taps and bathroom elements, etc.
• Natural, efficient exterior and interior isolation systems to reduce energy losses. 4 — Protection of the environment • FSC certified wood (from sustainable forest operations). • Ecological water paints. • Control of interior and exterior noise: external sound reducing class structure, isolation of reprography areas, etc. • Solar heat sensors and photovoltaic plant: solar panels to back up hot water production and photovoltaic solar panels for producing and selling electricity to the network.
With respect to this last point, the photovoltaic production of the plant opened in 2008 in the Zona Franca I Business Operative Centre was 17,640 kW/h, giving invoicing of more than 9,000 Euros.
4.6. Emissions
The Bus Network Emissions Map is a principal project contemplated in the TMB Environmental Sustainability Steering Plan in order to achieve the PO-4 objective (reduc- tion of atmospheric and acoustic contamination, improvement of the quality of the air and fight against climate change).
TMB has developed and implemented a new tool called an emission simulator in order to draw up new maps of emissions using the characteristics of the Transports Metropolitans de Barcelona vehicles and their networks.
The preparation of emission maps is contemplated in line with the new technologies broug- ht in or planned for the fleet (hybrid, bio diesel, diesel with suspended NOx and particulate filters, hydrogen, etc.) and the incorporation of emissions maps in the decision-taking con- cerning fleet distribution and network planning to reduce pollution in the city.

094 4.7. Improvements to the waste management system 4 — Protection of the environment
TMB fosters its policy of reducing and preventing waste generation in the workshops, the company offices and the metro stations by introducing selective collection, the construction of waste stores in the work centres (Green Points - Punts Verds) and by implementing the new management model. It is therefore planned to install Green Points in all TMB facilities and to extend selective collection in the metro network. The aim is to optimise the mana- gement of the approximately 5,000 tonnes a year of waste classified into 56 different types.
GREEN POINTS
TMB has introduced procedures for following up on and controlling the management of waste from the time it is generated, passing through transport until it reaches the final tre- atment plant.
In 2010, Metro opened Green Points in Can Zam and Roquetes. It already had such installa- tions in the Sagrera, Santa Eulàlia, Triangle and Vilapicina workshops.
TB opened a new Green Point in Zona Franca I and has planned another in Ponent, which will be built in 2011. These are added to those that there already were in the Horta and Triangle workshops.
The Environmental Sustainability Steering Plan precisely provides for the extension of Green Points to the remaining TMB by 2014.
095 SELECTIVE COLLECTION
As a pilot test, in July 2010 the selective collection system was started up at Passeig de Gràcia (L2, L3 and L4), Universitat (L1 and L2), Catalunya (L1 and L3) and Paral·lel (L2 and L3) stations.
After analysing the waste collected from the metro wastepaper baskets, the selection was made in three groups: paper and cardboard; plastic containers, cans and bricks, and the remaining fractions. Initially, 49 triple baskets were installed, each with three plastic bags
with a band of a different colour: blue, yellow and black, corresponding to the previously 4 — Protection of the environment defined waste groups. Thirty-eight trays for newspaper reuse were also set up.
The establishment of selective waste collection in the metro was preceded by a detailed study with the collaboration of the Environmental Area of Barcelona City Hall and the SIRESA logistics and environmental service company.
In fact, the TMB Environmental Sustainability Steering Plan provides for the implementa- tion of selective collection in the metro network in all offices (Sant Genís, Boixeres, Ponent, Mercat Nou, Hospital de Bellvitge, Can Zam and ZAL).

4.8. Green purchase
TMB works to include sustainability criteria in the process of purchasing products and ser- vices. In 2009, it approved the environmentally responsible purchasing policy, whose most immediate commitments included in the Environmental Sustainability Steering Plan are to present the internal green purchasing manual and progressively incorporate the environ- mental criteria defined in the manual of TMB products and services. The environmental criteria of the bus fleet are a clear example.
098 4.9. Water treatment and reuse
All of the workshops with a washing line have installations for treating and reusing the waters used in the process. However, TMB wishes to continue to investing in increasing 4 — Protection of the environment energy efficiency and optimising water management by means of water and energy audits in their facilities and by defining and implementing optimisation measures and mechanisms to monitor and control the situation, as is contemplated in the Environmental Sustainability Steering Plan.
The bus coach houses have waste water and rainwater collectors and comply with applicable regulations by following the process to achieve permission from the Entitat Metropolitana de Barcelona to tip into the sewers.
The Triangle Business Operative Centre has had a tipping permit since 2009 and the per- mits for Zona Franca and Horta were processed in 2010, which meant analysing the situa- tion in each of the centres, defining the corrective actions and necessary modifications and changes to meet all of the conditions of the tipping regulation of Entitat Metropolitana de Barcelona.

101 Targets 2011
Creation of the TMB photographic archive
In addition to the public transport service it offers, TMB goes further in its involvement with the citizens. This is shown by the constitution of the TMB Foundation in 2010 and a wide range of cultural, educational and supportive initiatives carried out by the company, as was the case of the first edition of the Primavera Cultural and the new ‘TMB moves for educati- on’ workshop in the TMB Educa program.
102 5.1. The TMB Foundation starts up
The TMB Foundation was formally constituted in 2010 and is an entity whose main objecti- ves are to ensure the preservation and dissemination of the company’s historical and cultu- with the citizens 5 — Involvement ral heritage, and to work in the social area to encourage inclusion, accessibility, cooperation, solidarity and the values of public transport as a sustainable option.
The trust is made up of FMB, TB and Projectes i Serveis de Mobilitat, along with the Fundación ECOM and the Fundación ONCE, which reinforced the entity’s social profile.
The following are some of the activities that will be carried out: • Inventory, preservation and protection of TMB’s historical and cultural heritage, which includes more than 60 vehicles that have given service in Barcelona since the end of the 19th century to the beginning of the 21st, and which are now assets of the foundation. • The organisation of cultural and training activities. • Fostering of research on collective and public transport and particularly on the environmental improvements that can be made. • Editing publications, giving grants and carrying out all kinds of initiatives in the line of promoting public transport accessible to one and all within the framework of a culture of sustainable mobility.
According to articles 5 and 6 of its statutes, the Foundation assumes activities that were previously carried out by TB and Metro and will therefore receive the resources from these companies that it needs to cover expenses.
Similarly, TMB has donated all of the historical vehicles currently forming part of its histo- rical and cultural heritage.
103 5.2. Preservation of the historical vehicle heritage with the citizens 5 — Involvement
The restoration of bus number 410 Aclo was completed in 2010. This vehicle was registered in 1949 and served most of the urban bus routes and some intercity. It was withdrawn from circulation in 1965 without any future intention, until in 1978 it was excellently restored in the Vilapicina coach houses both in appearance and mechanically, and was presented at the Expomòbil 78 exhibition. From 1979 to 1988 it circulated on a tourist line (the Zoobus). Finally, the need for further restoration obliged it to be withdrawn in 1989.
The Washington tram, a vehicle that came to Barcelona by sea in 1961, is also being restored.
In addition to its work in preserving the historical and cultural heritage of the company, TMB wishes to share it with the citizens to show how the changes in mobility have enhan- ced the evolution and growth of the city itself. TMB therefore has land in the Zona Franca, alongside the future L9 Mercabarna metro station, where there is a Modernist warehouse that will house the future permanent exhibition of vehicles, once it has been restored and suitably prepared.
5.3. Promotion of culture
From 17 March until the end of June, the first edition of the TMB Primavera Cultural was held on the Metro and bus network. This consisted of a series of actions and events framed within six large areas: music, exhibitions, fashion, stage and audiovisual arts, literature and history. The purpose of the event was to bring users to the social and cultural values of the city of Barcelona and its metropolitan area, and at the same time to enhance the image of TMB.
Among the activities that form part of this program, there were habitual ones such as musi- cal performances in the metro, but many new, pioneering cultural proposals also stood out, such as a fashion parade at Diagonal exchange (L5), trips on historical bus and metro vehi- cles, the opening of a new exhibition hall at Diagonal metro station (L5), the Espai Mercè Sala, and a dance show for a whole day on the metro.
What’s more, TMB organised different activities between 12 and 17 April for the Year of Cerdà in collaboration with the Barcelona Culture Institute (ICUB) and the Barcelona Contemporary Culture Centre (CCCB). In Universitat station (L2) a ‘fast video’ was set up where users were able to explain before the camera how they imagine Barcelona will be in the year 2159. The recorded messages were left in the Time Capsule of the Year of Cerdà, which will be left in the city and will be accompanied by instructions for it to be opened in 150 years.
In addition to this, in 2010 TMB put on the 2nd ‘With Music elsewhere’ cycle, a project that consists of creating an agenda of concerts by metro musicians in the civic centres of the different districts of Barcelona, in which some of the performers who usually play at the 32
104 points of the suburban network performed.
The cycle also brought in the sixth edition of the suitability tests of musicians in the metro, in which new candidates gained a licence to perform in the suburban network after a jury had considered their suitability. After nine years of musicians on the metro network facili- ties, TMB and the Association of Street Musicians (Amuc BCN), with the collaboration of a jury made up of teachers from the IJPC School of Musicians, organised a new audition to guarantee the quality of the suburban music. with the citizens 5 — Involvement Actions of the TMB Primavera Cultural 2010

The three authors, along with the poet Laia Noguera, accompani- ed the travellers on this trip around Barcelona, from Collserola to Montjuïc. The action was held for the Poetry Week organised by Barcelona City Hall.
105 Inauguration of the EspaI Mercè Sala
As part of the first edition of TMB ‘Primavera
Cultural’, on 10 June the Espai Mercè Sala with the citizens 5 — Involvement was opened as a new exhibition hall in the TMB metro network. The hall receives the name of the person who presided the company between 1980 and 1991, and gives a strong impulse to metropolitan public transport. The space occupies the former connection passage between the Diagonal halls, which was suppressed when the exchange was reformed, and is created with the intention of becoming a location for exhibitions but also a point for meeting, creativity and citizen participation. It will receive both its own productions and productions resulting from collaboration with entities and institutions, largely related to public transport. The space was opened with ‘The pulse of the city’, a display of metro photographs taken by Underground users from the Flickr social network. The exhibition replies to the programme that TMB wants for the new setup: to disseminate experiences and views related to mobility and public transport that are had in the infrastructures and/or the urban surroundings by people who use the service or have very close contact with it.
106 SUBTRAVELLING FESTIVAL 2010
Between 15 and 24 October, TMB organised the 2nd International Short film Show in the Metro Subtravelling, projecting the best creations of animation and fiction in short films. The Festival web page received more than 39,000 visits and 18,000 users enjoyed the minia- ture cinema in Universitat station. On 23 October, the prizes were given out at the Barcelona Maritime Museum, with over 300 people in attendance. The action was well received (8.4 out of 10) by those taking part, and was given a 7.4 by those not doing so.
The show started a new category ‘Film in TMB’, a public contest for making a three-minute with the citizens 5 — Involvement film on a mobile phone in the TMB metro and bus facilities. Around sixty short films were presented, and the contest was finally won by ‘Fábrica de sueños’, with ‘Transbordo’ in se- cond place and ‘Buen viaje’ third.
In the ‘Microshort’ category, the work of fiction chosen by the audience was ‘Post-It Love’, whereas most votes in the animation category went to ‘Solved’. In the ‘Campus’ category, a total of 12 short films made by the pupils of the cinema schools and universities in Catalonia were selected. Finally, ‘Ejercicio’ was chosen (El dedo en el ojo SL - Bande à Part. Escuela de Cine de Barcelona) as the best audiovisual piece.
8th MUSICIAN FESTIVAL IN THE METRO
From 11 to 13 November, the Universitat station hall received a true marathon of concerts led by a large part of the performers who habitually perform at certain points of the under- ground network facilities.
The new development from 2010 was a cultural exchange of metro musicians between Porto and Barcelona in order to enrich the relationships between both cities and also to achieve greater cultural notoriety before the public. A documentary was also made on the interior details of the Musicians in the Metro program, which was put on screens inside the metro and on the website.
107 VOLL-DAMM INTERNATIONAL JAZZ FESTIVAL OF BARCELONA
The Universitat and Passeig de Gràcia metro stations became two of the stages for the 42nd edition of the Voll-Damm International Jazz Festival of Barcelona on 20 and 29 October, with performances by the bass player Charlie Moreno Project and the duo formed by Charlie Moreno and Gemma Abrié.
For TMB, this participation in the festival was a chance to relate public transport to urban culture and the young audience. with the citizens 5 — Involvement
4th EDITION OF THE TMB SHORT STORY CONTEST
In 2010, the company held the 4th edition of the Short Story contest of Transports Metropolitans de Barcelona (TMB), in order to celebrate the feast of Sant Jordi. These are texts on a single page in Catalan or Spanish telling a story that has been experienced or ima- gined on a bus or the metro. All of the actions revolved around a web 2.0 where customers can send their stories, read them and discuss them. This initiative was carried out with the collaboration of Grupo Planeta and Grupo 62 through the publishing stamps Booket and labutxaca.
Of the 2,500 stories received, two types of winners were chosen. On the one side, there is a prize from the jury with the renowned writer Emili Teixidor as its president, in the general category and with two special mentions; and there is also a special prize given the name of ‘Nos mueve la sostenibilidad’ which chooses the story that best relates to the subject of sus- tainability and bus and/or metro. The competition also had a special category for children (8 to 12 years old), with a win and two distinctions.
To promote the competition, the writers Màrius Serra and Sílvia Soler wrote the first mobile short stories about a story on a bus and in a metro station hall.
What’s more, during the Sant Jordi festivities free copies were given out of a book made with the selection of the stories presented in the third edition of the contest, with the title of Stories on bus and metro, published by Planeta.
108 5.4. New developments of the TMB Educa educational programme with the citizens 5 — Involvement
In general terms, in 2010 a total of 348 visits were made as part of the TMB Educa program, representing the attendance of a total 9,077 students.
Educational visits 2010 Type of visit Number of visits Number of visitors
School 312 8,316
University 5 106
Special Education 19 386
Occupational Training 12 269
Total 348 9,077
Similarly, TMB Educa collaborated on 48 school and university research works included in the database that registers both students and educational centres and the works done.
The relationship with the Education Consortium was consolidated throughout the year with an agreement signed and the incorporation of the new ‘TMB mousse for education’ works- hop in the offer, posted in the Official Gazette of the Government of Catalonia, and which is included in the educational offer of the curricular diversification courses.
The workshop consists of 10 working sessions lasting three hours each, programmed in TMB in a real environment. The structure is based on knowledge of the operation and ma- nagement of the TMB transport network to learn what the service means and how it affects citizens’ mobility.
In this sense, in the third quarter of the 2009-2010 year two pilot trials were carried out of this workshop in the Juan de Austria and Salvador Espriu secondary school institu- tes. Following their satisfactory assessment, on 21 September an event was carried out at Sagrera L9/10 Station with the signing of an agreement between TMB and the Barcelona Education Consortium, in which the secondary schools that had done the workshop in the school year 2010-2011 took part.
Furthermore, the bonds were strengthened with the Education Department of Barcelona Regional Council so that TMB Educa might continue to take part in the local educational projects of the municipalities of Barcelona Metropolitan Area. The relationship was maintai- ned with the Council of Pedagogical Coordination in the ‘Education for Citizens’ workgroup; two new educational textbooks were designed in terms of content and production, corres- ponding to the ‘Let’s go to Montjuïc by public transport’ and the ‘Let’s visit the Metro coach house’ activities and the textbook corresponding to the ‘24 hours by bus’ activity was updated.
The TMB Educa project was also extended to other municipalities of Barcelona Metropolitan Area such as Sant Adrià del Besòs.
109 5.5. Support for the celebrations in the city with the citizens 5 — Involvement
LA MERCÈ FESTIVAL
On the occasion of the Mercè local festival, an informative campaign was carried out which, in addition to giving all of the information about extraordinary transport, was intended to inform on how to use it to get to all of the events. TMB customers were able to select the ac- tivities in which they were interested and share them on the social networks to be informed of the timetable and place where the event was to be held.
A photography competition was also held and the Mercè Gymkhana was sponsored with the support of a communication campaign focused on a micro site where participants could find all of the information they needed regarding registration and participation.
CHRISTMAS
The Christmas 2010 campaign had special actions such as the creation of a space in Universitat station called Christmas Box, where people could sing the TMB carol created especially for the occasion. The karaoke action was recorded and hung directly on the TMB channel on YouTube and on the micro site created for Christmas, and the participant viewed most times was awarded.
5.6. Solidarity in TMB
PROMOTION OF VOLUNTEERING
TMB has 460 volunteers (almost 6% of the payroll) involved in five volunteer profiles: bus driver, metro guide, TMB Educa monitor, a volunteer for one day and volunteer for deve- lopment. Throughout the year, four calls were made for external volunteers and 46 internal, a specific training session was given on fair trade (14 volunteers) and two training sessions were carried out on starting out as a volunteer.
Forty-one special services were given to enhance the independence of people with special mobility needs, with the participation of 18 volunteer drivers, and this philosophy was pas- sed over to metro with the new form of metro volunteer guide. Six actions were performed for the psychically disabled, with the participation of five volunteer guides.
Finally, a specific campaign was started to recruit volunteers through the ‘I am supportive, I am TMB’ commercial, which was broadcast at the participation systems meeting for the first time.
110 COLLABORATION WITH ENTITIES
In 2010, development also continued on the programme of direct donations from TMB to local entities and groups, and international donations within the framework of the collabo- ration agreement with the Association of Municipalities of Barcelona Metropolitan Area, to apply unused TMB assets to cooperation projects. The value of the donated assets exceeded 300,000 Euros.
TMB also took part in disseminating others’ activities and/or events. In this sense, special mention must be given to the agreement established with Action against Hunger, which ena- with the citizens 5 — Involvement bled four actions to be developed in favour of the entity. There was also sporadic collaboration with 16 social entities in the area of dissemination. The traditional food collection campaign was carried out for the Food Bank Foundation, and finally, numerous supportive proposals were also received from the employees within the line of action ‘You supportive? All suppor- tive!’ which were answered within this framework.
‘THE SILENCED HUNGER’
In December in the Mundet metro station (L3), it was possible to see the exhibition ‘The Silenced Hunger’, a series of photographs explaining the great work being done by inhabitants of countries such as Nigeria and Mali to cope with the malnutrition they suffer from and the difficulties they find in their daily lives. The show was promoted by Action against Hunger with the collaboration of TMB and the financing of the Catalan Development Cooperation Agency. All of the images were taken by the photographer Susana Vera, the winner of several Picture of the Year International awards and the Godó prize for Photo Journalism 2005.

The Observatory is intended to meet its members’ information needs concerning the operation of automatic metros. With the knowledge of its members, it produces documentation which is periodically made available in the UITP.
RELATIONSHIP WITH THE PRESS
In 2010, 9,253 TMB appearances were managed in the media. 67% were favourable to the company approaches, 3% were unfavourable (4.5 points down on the previous year) and the remaining 30% may be considered neutral. The most widely discussed subjects in the year were particularly the metro L9/10 (13% of the total), following the opening of L10, in addition to the later extension in Sagrera, the financing system, new concessions, etc. Also outstanding for the volume (5% of the total) is the information on cultural actions and par- ticularly the first edition of TMB Primavera Cultural.
The proactive work of the cabinet concentrated on carrying out and disseminating six infor- mative dossiers, 211 informative notes and remaining in constant contact with the media.
Work was also done on seeking applications for creating a TMB Photographic Archive, which is expected to be available for 2011.

115 6.1. Technology management model
The TMB Technology Area seeks to give value by providing specialised services for business to on innovation 6 — Firm stake facilitate change by innovation and proactivity and resolving problems from a multidiscipli- nary standpoint. To continue with the evolutionary process started as part of the Technology Steering Plan and to consolidate the creation of the area, a change of paradigm has been made to steer the area towards the management of technological services.
What’s more, work continued in 2010 on the development of the Technology Management Model started in 2009, which basically has three objectives: • To cover the internal organisational model aimed at service • To reply to the processes of the general framework • To steer the implementation of more suitable tools
6.2. Internal innovation
• Technology Steering Plan: Start or continuation of all the projects identified on the Technology Steering Plan Roadmap and those assigned a budgetary item. Of these, the following must be highlighted: development of the trite and fibre optics, stamping and sale systems adapted to the new credit cards with microchip and start of the strategic Mou TV project in order to replace the present Canal Metro. This new platform will be available at stations, on metro trains and buses and is intended to be a unique medium with updated, corporate contents and information on the service. • New corporate portal (new web 2.0): Development and presentation of the new TMB website based on 2.0 technology which will be operative in 2011. • Virtual TMB: in 2010, citizens were made available the Virtual TMB application in a version for iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4 telephones and another for those using the Android operating system. By focusing the telephone camera in any direction, the screen presents indicated signs superimposed over the real image of the stops, lines and distance in metres to each one. By placing the telephone horizontally, the apparatus becomes a compass and each stop is shown as an arrow indicating the way there.
116 METRO
• Continuation of the start-up of L9/10, with the changes made in the new Metro Control Centre. • A further 21 stations have been provided with mobile phone coverage to complete phase 5 of the project, and there are now 121 stations in the conventional network with the GSM telephony service.
• In 2010, the project was completed to adapt technical cameras, which now covers on innovation 6 — Firm stake 37% of the refurbished cameras. • Concerning the cabling infrastructure, tritub and fibre optics were installed this year in Phase I and II, and Phase III was adjudicated and started. 76% of the fibre optics and 84% of Tritub are in operation or under contracting. 2010 also saw the tender and adjudication of development phase I of the new 10 Gigabit Ethernet communication network. • Sermepa approved the new IECISA payment gateway that includes EMV protocol, a credit card interoperativity system with a microprocessor, which will become a necessary European standard for all credit card operations. The implementation of the first 99 distributor machines is contracted.
BUS
• Deployment of 125 PDA devices (33 personal and 92 shared) for access to the Operation Help System, electronic mail and mobile telephony. New functions are being provided: regulation, alteration details and command location. • The performance of two prototypes with different providers that guarantee the feasibility of the renovation of the bus on board sale and stamping system. This implementation will eliminate the sales desk (obsolete) and the infrared transfer system in the coach house. • Incorporation of the QR code in the posts. Using this technology, users can access information associated with each stop and the lines used, which will greatly enhance the connection with the iBus. • Improvements to the Driver Information System represented by a new TFT touch screen that includes all of the functions of the present Operation Help System and brings in additional support information such as control of the location and communication systems, the route sheet, timetable and line route. • Bus transfer centre (CT-BUS): This project uses the wireless network to detect the presence or absence of connected buses in order to be able to update them. The system includes a central server with the support of the database that concentrates all statistical and process information, while the contents are stored in the coach house server.
117 6.3. Encouraging network innovation
In 2010, TMB took part in the following research and development projects of which other on innovation 6 — Firm stake organisations form a part:
• Hybrid-Bus-BCN: In 2010 the project was started that is partially joint financed by ACC10 of the Government of Catalonia, which researches into hybrid and electrical drive technologies applied to urban buses. Specifically, the intention is to investigate applicable procedures for turning a conventional urban bus driven by diesel technology into a hybrid bus (diesel-electric). • ERRAC: This project of the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Union is a technology platform that promotes European research in the railway field both for the national network and the local, urban, suburban and regional. ERRAC brings together the representatives of the European Union, the member states and the railway R&D players (operators, industry, researchers...), and suggests the priority R&D subjects to the European Union for the forthcoming framework programmes, and especially the eighth. This platform has been established until 2013 and TMB is one of the two representatives of the Spanish state. • ModSafe: One of the conclusions of the European Union ModUrban project was the need to investigate in the field of railway safety in order to establish even criteria in the urban railway transport industry, in order to increase safety, reduce the delivery time and expenses of the products required by the operators. Among the ModUrban members within the Seventh European Union Framework Program, a proposal known as ModSafe was presented in this sense, which was approved and research activities are now under way. It is expected to be completed between 2011 and 2012. • Urban Tracks: The aim of the project is to develop innovative products based on 2020 ERRAC Vision, a low-cost life cycle railway infrastructure system that is high-performance, modular, safe, quiet and smooth, ans also compatible with the European market. The project started in January 2006 and finished in the summer of 2010. • Elecrail: In railway transport, electricity consumption has an important weight in the operational expenditure. Furthermore, the high electrical consumption also has negative consequences on the environment. This project studies the processes of electrical consumption in the railway world and identifies elements that can be improved, finally defining a series of recommendations for reducing consumption. The project, which is joint financed by the Ministry of Industry, started in 2008 and ended in the second quarter of 2010.
118 6.4. Advice in innovation
The purpose of the Department of Technical Corporation and Foreign Promotion of TMB is to on innovation 6 — Firm stake contribute to expanding other transport networks by providing its knowledge and technical, commercial, administrative, personal and legal experience, and by making engineering projects.
The projects currently being developed in surface networks are the following: • Rijhad (Saudi Arabia): for the transport operation of the King Faisal University. • Casablanca (Morocco): restructuring of the urban transport network in this city’s metropolitan area.
Regarding the projects carried out in recent years, TMB has taken part in the following: • Caracas (Venezuela): controlling the manufacture and testing buses, training maintenance managers, drawing up conditions for the Operation Help System and training technicians, amongst other things. • Monterrey (Mexico): preparing the bus fleet Maintenance Plan. • Canary Islands: studying management and operation improvements, studying transport in Tenerife, as well at its demand and the tariff integration project. • Ciudad Guayana (Venezuela): urban network planning. • Calvià (Majorca): performing the study of the urban transport network and the study of citizens’ mobility by taxi to draw up the new regulation. • Tunis: carrying out the second phase of the circulation plan, the study of tariff integration for public transport in the city. • Panama: carrying out the bus integrated transport system study. What’s more, the consortium formed by TMB, Ayesa and Inelectra has been selected to manage the project and give technical assistance in the operation of the first metro line in the city of Panama. • Chile: analysing the responsibility and control of the public transport systems.
119 Responsible and sustainable supply
7120 The companies of TMB -which lie in the public sector and are considered adjudicating powers- contract goods and services in accordance with Law 31/2007, the regulation that establishes the procedures for contracting in the water, energy, transport and postal service sectors, and through which directives 2004/17/CE and 92/13/CEE are incorporated into Spanish legal ordinance.
Law 31/2007 deals with the procedure for adjudicating contracts referring or related to their own activity and which have a total amount, in relation to work, of 5,150,000 Euros or more, and regarding the adjudication of supply and service contracts, amounts of 412,000 Euros or more.
As for contracts with a value under the mentioned thresholds or excluded from Law 31/2007 7 — Responsible and sustainable supply for objective reasons, they will be subject to the pertinent regulations of Law 30/2007 concerning Public Sector Contracts, without being applied the regulations established ex- clusively for contracts subject to harmonised regulations, in other words to European regu- lations. This translates into the provision of compulsory internal instructions that have to be suitably approved by the top bodies in TMB.
The principles that guide the contracting activity in TMB are: freedom of access to ten- ders, advertising and transparency of procedures, non-discrimination and equal treatment of candidates; the assurance of the efficient use of funds intended for carrying out works, purchasing goods and contracting services, by requiring a previous definition of the needs to be met, the safeguard of free competition and a selection of the economically most ad- vantageous offer.
121 Policy of Environmentally and Socially Responsible Purchasing
The purchase and use of products and services has an environmental and social impact on the surroundings. TMB is aware of the positive impact it can have on the environment and society, and has an Environmentally and Socially Responsible 7 — Responsible and sustainable supply Purchasing policy by virtue of which environmental and social cri- teria are applied in purchasing its products and services in order to achieve benefits for the environment and the whole of society.
This policy determines that: • The TMB management will support and become involved in devel- oping the policy of purchasing products and services that meet en- vironmentally and socially responsible criteria. • The staff will participate in preventing the impacts associated with the purchases by bringing environmental and social criteria into the conventional purchasing criteria. • The environmental and social criteria will be considered in the pur- chasing planning phase and in the decision taking. • All departments, offices and institutions shall make sure that the contracted agents preferably use environmentally and socially re- sponsible products and that the environmental and social aspects are contemplated in the services on offer. • Responsibility for Environmentally and Socially Responsible • Purchasing will be shared between the staff requesting the prod- uct/service and the purchasing staff. • Environmentally and Socially Responsible Purchasing will be one of TMB’s main commitments in preventing pollution.
122 TMB agrees to: • Increase the purchase of Environmentally and Socially Responsible Products and Services. • Identify and implement pilot projects in order to enhance the incor- poration of environmental and social criteria in purchasing products
and services. 7 — Responsible and sustainable supply • Establish programs to encourage the agency involved in managing purchases to favour the promotion of Environmentally and Socially Responsible Purchasing. • Promote responsible purchasing by fostering consumption savings policies. • Incentives on including clauses of social and environmental behav- iour in processes.
123 7.1. Contractual activity control and management bodies 7 — Responsible and sustainable supply TMB has several bodies managing and controlling contractual activity. The top contracting bodies are the Executive Commission and the Contracting Committee.

125 7.2. Advertising of the contractual activity
TMB’s contractual activities are advertised in accordance with the provisions of Law 31/2007, whenever this might proceed and, in any case, with everything that is determined by TMB’s internal regulations, depending on the nature and the value of the contract, but 7 — Responsible and sustainable supply always guaranteeing compliance with this general principle. The priority means of disse- mination of the contractual activity and with the effects derived from the provisions of Law 30/2007, is through the Contracting Profile, which is accessed through the institutional web site www.tmb.cat, without prejudice to any advertising that might be made through the official gazettes or other means whenever necessary.
Furthermore, TMB has its own classification system called PROTRANS, in accordance with the principles and conditions established by Law 31/2007 and with the effects derived from this regulation regarding advertising and calling for tenders.
The register of PROTRANS suppliers is a common system made up by the most important, significant transport operators and created in order to provide an effective, objective and permanently updated management tool to select suppliers and contractors.
All interested economic operators can ask for registry and the corresponding classification in the PROTRANS supplier register, the existence of which TMB states by annual publicati- on in the official gazettes. To form part of the register certain questions are asked to relative to the area of Corporate Social Responsibility: belonging to some kind of insurance system, subscription to certain environmental, social and labour standards, availability of anticor- ruption systems and the application of responsible working practices, amongst others.
TMB fosters the contracting of local suppliers. 56.3% of TB suppliers belong to one of the 11 municipalities where the organisation operates. In the case of FMB, the percentage of local suppliers is 76%.
In 2010, the 1st TMB supportive consumption exhibition was held as an action to raise awareness in collaboration with Intermon Oxfam and Conductors Solidaris de Catalunya
126 7.3. Towards electronic billing
Throughout the year, work was done on the procedure and implementation of digitisation of supplier invoices with the following objectives:
• To reduce the time required for accounting supplier bills to put more time into 7 — Responsible and sustainable supply other work of greater added value. • Greater efficiency and speed in attending suppliers and internal customers in dealings related to invoicing. • Greater security and speed in obtaining payment information in treasury forecasts. • Time reduction and space saving in storage.
127 Economic action
8128 8. Economic action
The year 2010 was outstanding for a considerable increase in the metro offer caused by the 8 — Economic action extensions of L2, L5 and L9/10, which had an affect on the Profit and Loss Accounts.
Total income for the TMB consolidated group (including service subsidies) grew by 9.4% over the previous year. Income derived from travel tickets increased by 15.4 million Euros (+4.9%) thanks to the larger number of passengers. Accessory income rose by 9.2 million Euros and service subsidies grew by 11.7% with respect to the previous year. As part of the accessory income, 5.2 million Euros came from invoicing to Ifercat for maintenance work performed on the infrastructures of L9/10 by Ferrocarril Metropolità de Barcelona, S.A. Other items that grew considerably throughout the year were those arising from fees for advertising and special services on the bus shuttle lines, amongst others.
All of the operation expenses before redemption grew by 9.3% over the previous year. By items, greatest growth was seen in Outsourced Services with 47.7 million Euros and, with regard to the previous year, the increase due to the fee on L9/10 paid to Ifercat of 26.2 mil- lion Euros, the 11 million Euro increase in train renting, and the increased expense of certain items such as the repair and preservation of machinery, installations and tools, the repair and preservation of fixed installations, the expenses of security and cleaning in stations, buildings and transport elements, amongst others.
Another item that also grew significantly was Supplies (+12.8%), mainly among materials for consumption and replacement.
What’s more, attention must be drawn to the more moderate growth of Energy and Fuel expenditure (+3.4%) and that of Operative Personnel (+2.3%).
Finally, net redemption grew by 12.1% over the previous year. The fall in financial expendi- ture of -3.9% should also be stressed.

9141 About the Annual Report 2010 9 — Annexes
The TMB Annual Reported 2010 includes the principal actions of the organisation in 2010 in the area of sustainability. TMB’s objective with this publication is to measure its work with respect to the objective of sustainable development in the economic, environmental and social areas and also to give public account on the subject to its main stakeholders or interest groups. The report includes both the positive and negative contributions of TMB in 2010 with a reference to the evolution in the previous two years.
In order to show a balanced, reasonable presentation of the development of TMB, this re- port has been based on the new version of the guide G 3.1 of the Global Reporting Initiative for preparing sustainability reports, and follows these principles in its preparation: Materiality. The information provided in this report covers and tries to reply to all indicators set out in the G3.1 preparation guide. The materiality was determined from the analysis of the group activity, its impact on the interest groups, its interaction with the surroundings and the analysis of the risks and opportunities of the tendencies affecting the organisation and which might have an influence on sustainability. Exhaustiveness. The publication precisely covers all indicators and material aspects required for the interest groups to be able to assess TMB’s work in 2010. Comparability. The disseminated information is presented in a format that enables comparison and analysis of TMB’s evolution with the passing of time. Methodology. The methodology used by TMB in collecting data was similar to that used in previous reports. Coverage. In the coverage of the report there are no joint ventures, subsidiaries, leased facilities, subcontracted activities and other entities that might affect the possibility of comparing the report. Precision and clarity. The information provided is precise and detailed so that the different interest groups can assess TMB’s work. Regularity. TMB present its report each year following a calendar so that the interest groups might take decisions with suitable information. The last published report was the Annual Report 2009. Reliability. The information provided is checked independently by DNV, a body that is in no way related to TMB, and has been drawn up in accordance with guide G3.1 of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI). This body has given the report an A +, the maximum qualification granted in recognition of these kinds of reports.

153 DNV Statement of Assurance 9 — Annexes TMB GROUP Annual Report 2010 - TMB
Det Norske Veritas Business Assurance Spain (DNV) has been commissioned by the Barcelona Metropolitan Transport Management Group (TMB group) to carry out the verification of the Annual Corporate Responsibility / Sustainability on 2010, called "Annual Report 2010 "(hereinafter Report). TMB is responsible for the collection, analysis, aggregation and presentation of information within the Report. Our responsibility in performing this work is to the management of TMB only and in accordance with terms of reference agreed with the organisation. The assurance engagement is based on the assumption that the data and information provided to us is complete and true.
Scope and Limitations of Assurance The scope of work agreed upon includes the following:
• Verification of the CR management practices at TMB Group, focusing us on the following areas: sustainability strategy; environmental management and reporting; human resources (diversity; health and safety); and community relations in Metro, Bus and Corporate areas. The financial indicators have not been verified; • CR related policy, strategy, objectives and achievements in 2010 described in the Report; • Initiatives and projects related with the RC described in the Report; • Processes and tools for collecting, aggregating and reporting qualitative and quantitative data in the Report; • Review of the Report’s adherence to the principles of Materiality, Completeness, Neutrality, Reliability, Responsiveness and Stakeholder Inclusiveness, as set out in the DNV Protocol. This also included a check of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) application level declared by TMB Group. • Review of the online GRI indicators in accordance with GRI G3.1
The testing was conducted during May 2011.
Verification Methodology
Our assurance engagement was planned and carried out in accordance with the DNV Protocol for Verification of Sustainability Reporting. The Report has been evaluated against the following principles: Materiality, Completeness, Neutrality, Reliability, Responsiveness and Stakeholder Inclusiveness, as set out in the DNV Protocol.
As part of the verification DNV has challenged the CR-related statements and claims made in the Report and assessed the robustness of the underlying data management system, information flow and controls. We have:
Conducted interviews with TMB personnel representing the above mentioned functions. Each interview sought to discuss how CR was perceived and managed, current CR performance, key challenges and opportunities for improvement; Carried out a review of the processes and tools used to collect, analyse, aggregate and report on CR related data; Investigated statements and claims made in the report through the review of data at source and discussions with the originators of the information; Conducted a review of relevant documentation, databases and information supplied by TMB; Visited the following offices in the city: Headquarters or in the Industrial Free Zone, Street 60, No 21-23 Head C / Balmes 149 Review of a selection of internal communication and external media reports relating to TMB CR management and performance.
Conclusions In DNV’s opinion, the report is a fair and accurate representation of the TMB CR strategies, management systems and performance. TMB has led a management strategy based on CR-related risks but should go further in its implementation and regular updating of risk-based approach. TMB Group demonstrates a clear commitment to the criteria of transparency in information, as well as its accuracy. We hope that in future reports can be developed over the management of other material aspects already included in the report as aspects of "ethics". We have evaluated the Report’s adherence to the principles on a scale of ‘Good’, ‘Acceptable’ and ‘Needs Improvement’
Materiality: Acceptable. TMB Group shows that its principles and strategies are aligned with the major issues and future challenges of the public transport sector (sustainable mobility, accessibility). This principle is present in developing organizational strategy, through its policies, objectives and goals. The risk management system for the identification of material impacts of CR should be implemented across the board. It should give more coverage to anti-corruption issues in the report.
