  • Institutional Forms and Financial Mechanisms Facilitating Successful Public Transit Enterprises
    INSTITUTIONAL FORMS AND FINANCIAL MECHANISMS FACILITATING SUCCESSFUL PUBLIC TRANSIT ENTERPRISES -- LESSONS FROM JAPAN AND HONG KONG -- Richard K. Taube June 15, 1999 ABSTRACT This report focuses on institutional and financial lessons learned in a study mission to Japan and Hong Kong in April, 1999, in which 21 transit systems, agencies and firms were visited in the Kobe, Osaka, Nagoya and Tokyo areas of Japan and 10 such systems in Hong Kong. The report reviews the political and economic context of Japan, followed by a synopsis of its customs, policies and trends of relevance to public transit markets. Organizations and policies of the various government entities are described and three important aspects of the Japanese transit environment are examined in greater detail: Daisan Sector and related enterprises, new technologies and fare collection. The same form is repeated for Hong Kong. The final section of the report provides comparisons and lessons, among and between Japan, Hong Kong and the United States. This section emphasizes the similarities of Japan and Hong Kong, especially the devastating effects of recession, high land values, population density, low auto ownership, high transit use, active role of governments in profit-making enterprises, and vigorous leverage of land use and transit to maximize mutual advantages. While there are also important differences (Japan's population growth is almost stagnant while Hong Kong faces even greater growth than in the past; Hong Kong is much farther advanced in electronic payment), the two countries reinforce certain lessons that seem most applicable to the U.S., despite many political, cultural and economic differences.

    THE HONG KONG SECTION OF ASME INTERNATIONAL CUM INSTITUTION OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERS HONG KONG BRANCH TECHNICAL VISIT TO ALEXANDER DENNIS BUS BODY ASSEMBLY WORKSHOP IN ZHUHAI ON 13 DECEMBER 2014 Joint delegation of ASME-HKS and IMechE-HKB to visit ADL Bus Body Assembly Workshop in Zhuhai (Jimmy Lee) General Over a century ago in the U.K., omnibus was already purpose-built double-deck. Since then double-deck buses have become an indispensable part of public transport in the country until this very day. With British influence, in 1949 Kowloon Motor Bus (KMB) of Hong Kong introduced the first double-deck bus into the territory, unveiling the chapter of double-decker bus being the backbone of road public transport. The unique conditions for operation of public buses in Hong Kong, such as the combinations of hilly terrain, frequent start-stop, over-loading, high ambient temperature and relative humidity and the demand for air-conditioning, are onerous and these have made the task of developing reliable and durable double-deck buses particularly challenging for the bus suppliers at all times. Assembled ADL Enviro500 12 metres buses for KMB lined-up outside Granton office (Edmund Leung) ASME-HKS cum IMechE-HKB Technical Visit to ADL Zhuhai on 13/12/2014 Page 1 of 13 Alexander Dennis (ADL) is one of the very few companies successful in supplying double-deck buses to Hong Kong consistently. Its Loline double-decker model delivered to China Motor Bus in 1962 was the first double-deck bus on the roads of Hong Kong Island. 13 years later, from 1975 onward it supplied hundreds of units of Jubilant, the bespoke front-engine model tailored proprietarily for the Hong Kong market, and became a principle double-deck bus supplier for the territory.
