  • Competitive Tendering of Rail Services EUROPEAN CONFERENCE of MINISTERS of TRANSPORT (ECMT)
    Competitive EUROPEAN CONFERENCE OF MINISTERS OF TRANSPORT Tendering of Rail Competitive tendering Services provides a way to introduce Competitive competition to railways whilst preserving an integrated network of services. It has been used for freight Tendering railways in some countries but is particularly attractive for passenger networks when subsidised services make competition of Rail between trains serving the same routes difficult or impossible to organise. Services Governments promote competition in railways to Competitive Tendering reduce costs, not least to the tax payer, and to improve levels of service to customers. Concessions are also designed to bring much needed private capital into the rail industry. The success of competitive tendering in achieving these outcomes depends critically on the way risks are assigned between the government and private train operators. It also depends on the transparency and durability of the regulatory framework established to protect both the public interest and the interests of concession holders, and on the incentives created by franchise agreements. This report examines experience to date from around the world in competitively tendering rail services. It seeks to draw lessons for effective design of concessions and regulation from both of the successful and less successful cases examined. The work RailServices is based on detailed examinations by leading experts of the experience of passenger rail concessions in the United Kingdom, Australia, Germany, Sweden and the Netherlands.

Comme si l’ouverture des tunnels de la ligne n° 1 de métro, que nous empruntons encore, était plus palpable que la motorisation d’un omnibus hippomobile, dont les autobus actuels ne sont que de très lointains héritiers. Au-delà du rapport de chaque mode aux infrastructures et donc de leur place dans l’espace public et l’imaginaire de Paris, ce qui se trouve en question est bien là le rapport patrimonial existant entre la ville et les objets qui lui assurent une certaine mobilité.

  • Squaring the Circle: the Bhls Concept
    SQUARING THE CIRCLE: THE BHLS CONCEPT María Eugenia López Lambas Associated Professor of Transport ETSI Caminos, Canales y Puertos –Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM), Spain Cristina Valdés PhD Researcher Transyt-UPM, Spain ABSTRACT The transport system known as Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) was launched in Curitiba, Brazil, in 1974 as a means of offering efficient and effective bus travel within the fast expanding city. This experience, together with other such Ottawa (since 1983) or Quito (since 1994), has proven to be an efficient and effective solution to mass transport. Throughout Europe similar experiences have started to be developed, but addressing a different concept in terms of quality of service. Indeed, bus systems such as the “trunk network”, in Sweden, the Metrobus, in Germany, or the BHNS (Bus à Haut Niveau de Service in France), approach the quality of service from a wider perspective than the BRT, as it considers aspects such as image and comfort, apart from speed, frequency or reliability. These new systems - BHLS (Buses with a High Quality of Service) - allow to combine quality of service of tramways with the lower costs and higher flexibility of bus systems, offering very interesting solutions in terms of accessibility, as well as a wide range of service levels, that allows the system to be adapted to the different urban contexts (size, population, density , etc) The economic situation we are facing has beard a lack of funds that, at the end, means an opportunity for BHLS, called to play an important role in public transport: less costs with the same quality of service seems to be a very attractive option.
