    Railway and Transport Strategy Centre The Operator’s Story Appendix: London’s Story © World Bank / Imperial College London Property of the World Bank and the RTSC at Imperial College London Community of Metros CoMET The Operator’s Story: Notes from London Case Study Interviews February 2017 Purpose The purpose of this document is to provide a permanent record for the researchers of what was said by people interviewed for ‘The Operator’s Story’ in London. These notes are based upon 14 meetings between 6th-9th October 2015, plus one further meeting in January 2016. This document will ultimately form an appendix to the final report for ‘The Operator’s Story’ piece Although the findings have been arranged and structured by Imperial College London, they remain a collation of thoughts and statements from interviewees, and continue to be the opinions of those interviewed, rather than of Imperial College London. Prefacing the notes is a summary of Imperial College’s key findings based on comments made, which will be drawn out further in the final report for ‘The Operator’s Story’. Method This content is a collation in note form of views expressed in the interviews that were conducted for this study. Comments are not attributed to specific individuals, as agreed with the interviewees and TfL. However, in some cases it is noted that a comment was made by an individual external not employed by TfL (‘external commentator’), where it is appropriate to draw a distinction between views expressed by TfL themselves and those expressed about their organisation.

  • Student Travel Discounts
    Advice & Guidance Money Mentors Student travel discounts Studying in London is a unique experience compared to other universities. Whilst the capital offers an unrivaled amount of things to see and do, it can at first be an overwhelming experience with its own trials and tribulations. Although there are two discount options available to help reduce costs, understanding which one is best is in itself a confusing process. Most students are aware of the 18+ Student Oyster Photocard, but lesser known is the discount offered on the tube using the 16-25 Railcard. So which one is the best? The simple answer is that it depends entirely on the student - how frequently you use the transport network, and during which times. Before forking out on either, it is useful to know the basic details. The 18+ Student Oyster Photocard The 18+ Oyster entitles you to 30% off travelcards and Bus and Tram season tickets. It is available to full- time King’s students living in the Greater London area applying online using the TFL website at a cost of £20. You’ll simply need your course dates, the student number on your ID card, as well as a photo and your email. Applying a discounted travelcard to an oyster gives peace of mind that you won’t spend any more than the amount you’ve already paid. It is important to stress though, there is no discount to pay-as-you-go fares with an 18+ Oyster. You could be overpaying for a travelcard if you aren’t using the tube or buses frequently so it is worth considering the other option before handing over £20 to Tfl.

  • Contactless Payments Travel Well in London
    Mastercard Transit Solutions CASE STUDY Contactless payments travel well in London With more than half of all Tube, bus and rail journeys now paid for using Contactless, the pay-as-you-go technology is powering a more convenient commute across London. Overview Each day, more than 31 million journeys take place on the trains, buses and Underground Tube™ of London. Transport for London (TfL) runs the public transportation network for one of the world’s busiest cities. TfL manages the varied systems that move Londoners—and millions of visitors—safely and efficiently to their destinations. For more than a decade, TfL has used Oyster, a pre-loaded contactless smartcard, as its ticketless payment system for fares on bus, Tube, tram, DLR, London Overground, TfL Rail, Emirates Air Line and most National Rail services in London. Doing so has eliminated the need to use cash to pay for fares, helping to reduce long queues during peak travel times. Over time, however, rapidly changing technology, and a wider desire for more accessible and connected system signaled an upgrade was in order. Challenge For daily commuters, the Oyster smart ticketing system is easy and convenient to use. Commuters can pre-purchase a weekly, annual or monthly pass in stations, retail outlets “We wanted to give people and—for UK residents only— online. The passes mean the independence to pay for commuters can travel within the specified area for the relevant period without the need to re-load their cards. transit in exactly the same Plus, they can pay as they go, with the option to authorise automatic replenishment when their credit balance way they pay for everything approaches zero.

  • Assessing the Value of Tfl's Open Data and Digital Partnerships
    Assessing the value of TfL’s open data and digital partnerships July 2017 Contents Foreword 01 Executive summary 03 Main report 08 Appendices 16 Methodological approach and assumptions 17 Calculation ranges 20 Stakeholders consulted 21 TfL open data 22 Foreword Assessing the value of TfL’s open data and digital partnerships Foreword With over 31 million journeys made in London every day, it is vital that people have the right travel information readily available to help them. Almost a decade ago, we decided to release a significant amount of our data – timetables, service status and disruption – in an open format for anyone to use, free of charge. Our hope was that partners would then produce new products and services and bring them to market quickly, thereby extending the reach of our own information channels. Our guiding principle ever since has been to make non-personal data openly available unless there is a commercial, technical or legal reason why we should not do so. We have worked with numerous partners and supported a growing community of professional and amateur developers to deliver new products in the form our customers want. There are now over 600 apps powered by our data, used by 42 per cent of Londoners. What is less well understood is the economic value and social benefits of this approach, which is why we asked Deloitte to undertake an independent review. This report sets out their findings, including the positive outcomes delivered to customers, road users, businesses and TfL itself. It estimates the size of these benefits and identifies further wider benefits that are not yet measurable.
