  • Countdown to Launch of France's First Urban Cable
    International Edition – 14 November 2016 Countdown to launch of France’s first urban cable car On Saturday 19 November, Keolis will launch France’s first urban cable car in the city of Brest in north-west Brittany. The system features the vertical crossing of cabins – a world first – and will link the left bank station, situated on a hill above the naval base, to the right bank station located inside the Ateliers des Capucins. The new Capucins eco-district, structured around former French Navy workshops, will house shops and restaurants as well as cultural and leisure facilities. The cable car is operated automatically and the system is supervised by Keolis Brest teams at the Bibus network control room. The two, 60-passenger cabins provide breath-taking views of the harbour during the three- minute crossing over the river Penfeld. This new, economical and environmentally-friendly urban transport mode will be integrated into the city’s existing public transport network, and passengers can access the tram, bus and cable car with a single Bibus transport ticket.

  • Public Transport Partnerships
    PUBLIC TRANSPORT PARTNERSHIPS An Overview of Passenger Rail Franchising in Victoria March 2005 Department of Infrastructure PUBLIC TRANSPORT PARTNERSHIPS An Overview of Passenger Rail Franchising in Victoria March 2005 Public Transport Division Department of Infrastructure © State of Victoria 2005 Published by Public Transport Division Department of Infrastructure 80 Collins Street, Melbourne March 2005 www.doi.vic.gov.au This publication is copyright. No part may be reproduced by any process except in accordance with the provisions of the Copyright Act 1968. Authorised by the Victorian Government, 80 Collins Street, Melbourne. Minister’s Foreword In February 2004, after the failure of the original privatisation framework, the Victorian Government entered into new franchise agreements with Melbourne’s public transport companies, Yarra Trams and Connex. These partnership agreements find the balance between government support for public transport in Melbourne and the operational expertise provided by experienced private rail operators. Almost one year on, the new arrangements are running smoothly, providing stability across the public transport system and giving a solid foundation for a range of improvements in service delivery. Some of the other benefits to passengers that stem from these agreements include: • Additional front-line customer service staff; • Increased security patrols; • Improved driver training programs; • All night New Year’s Eve services; • Additional rolling stock; and • Improved standards for the upkeep of transport facilities. The key themes of this summary report include the background to the failure of the original contracts, the renegotiations, the nature of the new partnership agreements and the challenges of the refranchising process. You can obtain the latest information about Melbourne’s public transport by visiting www.doi.vic.gov.au/transport I commend this report to you.

  • TRAM ROUTE 86 CORRIDOR IMPROVEMENT PROJECT COMMUNITY REFERENCE GROUP – WESTGARTH Recommendation Report
    TRAM ROUTE 86 CORRIDOR IMPROVEMENT PROJECT COMMUNITY REFERENCE GROUP – WESTGARTH Recommendation Report Background The Westgarth Community Reference Group for the Tram Route 86 Corridor Improvement Project was convened by Council to provide community input into the re-work of the Project. Seven nominees were selected by Council for the group and six members participated throughout the four meetings which were scheduled fortnightly over July/August 2009. This Report contains a summary of the discussions and debates that were held between group members over the four meetings. The Notes of each meeting are presented in Appendix 1. The Report is divided into sections; 1. The Recommendations 2. Other Considerations 3. Appendices The group wishes to record again its strong opposition to any proposals that result in the creation of any form of sliplane which has the effect of bringing High Street traffic in closer proximity to those houses located on High Street south of Westgarth Street. Council should be aware that in the course of this process an option was presented to the Reference Group and was seen as a breach of Council’s prior undertakings that a sliplane would not form part of any future considerations. The Recommendations In the first two meetings the group discussed the issues that were raised with the initial proposal for the Westgarth section. These included: Impact on businesses Improved public transport & Pedestrian Access vs Vehicle Access Disability Access and Safety (40km/h) Resident Amenity vs Public transport access Ruckers
