Back to the Floor
00 Arriva NOW! December 2009 3 Back to the floor MEETING and exceeding customers’ expectations is a priority at Arriva and National Customer Service Week (NCSW) provided the perfect opportunity to demonstrate this. Highlighting how important good customer care is for the business was just one of the benefits of NCSW, which was held from 5-9 October. It was also a chance for Arriva’s excellent customer service to shine. It was the first time Arriva had taken part in the national event and the newly centralised customer service team at Aintree and Luton used Customer service advisor Steve Byrne with operations manager Mark Brack. the occasion to organise a range of events and activities. Cross-team quizzes, a dress-down day at Aintree and a colour-themed day at Luton were just a few of the highlights. The Institute of Customer Service visited Luton, and managers from across the business went “back to the floor”. Feedback In Glasgow, Leeds, Middlesbrough, Wakefield and Whitby managers and directors joined passengers on Arriva’s buses to get face-to-face feedback. Managers and directors also took to the phones to listen to what customers had to say. Mark Brack, operations manager at Arriva North West’s St Helens’ garage, was just one of the managers who went “back to the floor” and says he found it to be a very helpful and interesting experience. Mark spent several hours with customer service advisor Steve Byrne at Aintree and was impressed with the professionalism of the team. Bob Winnington, Institute of Customer Service director, left, and customer service manager Linsey Frostick, right, He said: “I really admire the team’s knowledge, present Luton customer service advisor Dainh Danzine with a prize.

Evidence from the London Bus Tendering Model * Miguel AMARAL ATOM – U. of Paris I Sorbonne Stéphane SAUSSIER ADIS – U. of Paris 11 & ATOM – U. of Paris I Sorbonne ∗ Anne YVRANDE-BILLON ATOM – U. of Paris I Sorbonne September 13th, 2006 Abstract In this paper we investigate the relationship between auctions’ results and the number of bidders for local transportation contracts in London. Using an original database concerning 294 local transportation routes we find that a higher number of bidders is associated with a lower cost of service. This finding, in addition of being one of the first empirical test of a crucial and understudied theoretical issue has important policy implications, especially for countries in which bids are organized such that only few bidders are allowed to answer (e.g. France). Key Words: public services, transportation, franchise bidding, public-private partnerships, winner’s curse, auctions.

University of Hertfordshire Mobile Ticketing Project
University of Hertfordshire Mobile Ticketing Project U-MOB Conference Krakow, Poland th th 13 /14 March 2019 Dr Scott Copsey / Nick Reed / Dr Richard Southern County of Hertfordshire/ University . Mix of rural villages & large towns (affordability issues) . Close to London (regulated public transport environment) . Surrounded by 3 main airports . Dissected by a number of major road links . Serviced by two main bus & one main train operator (de-regulated environment) Why did the University of Hertfordshire Set Up its Own Bus Company (UNO)? . Transport links are mainly North-South with few East-West links . Sustainability: Hertfordshire has a high car owning population . Hertfordshire has relatively poor public transport (except for rail links into London) . Growth of the University of Hertfordshire. From the late 1980’s there has been a major increase in student numbers (from c.5k to c.24,600 students) . Community issues with on-street parking, perceived lack of accessibility to the University and traffic congestion . Existing transport infrastructure was not fit for purpose Who Are UNO’s Customers? . Things seemed simple back in 1992 when the University set up its own bus company (“University Bus” now called “UNO”): . Students and staff were our “customers” and the University subsidised their travel . However there were other markets out there which we could serve e.g., schools, colleges, commuters and shoppers . So, both from a financial perspective and in the interests of providing a sustainable transport solution, the University decided to serve those markets as well The UNO Bus Route Network . UNO is a major bus operator in Central Hertfordshire but its routes spread across Hertfordshire into Bedfordshire and North London .
