    PORTFOLIO OF EXPERTISE Bus services Connecting new lines, together. Drawing from our long experience as a multimodal operator, we look forward to assisting you with the construction and optimization of your mobility systems and services. Our ambition is to develop with you, in a genuine spirit of partnership, customized, safe, effective and responsible transit solutions that are adapted to your needs and constraints and closely in tune with customer expectations. The mobility of the future will be personalized, autonomous, connected and electric. This is our firm belief. Innovation is at the heart of our approach, in order to constantly improve the performance of public transportation services and make the promise of “new mobilities” a reality, for everyone. As well as uncompromising safety, which is our credo, our overriding concern is the satisfaction of our customers and the quality of their experience. Every team member in the group engages on a daily basis to meet these challenges and implement solutions both for today and for the future. Thierry Mallet Chief Executive Officer Renaissance for bus services There was once a feeling that the common transit bus had become a ‘lost’ or ‘secondary’ mode of public transit trailing behind metro and light rail systems, which often took the spotlight. The perception has changed in recent years, supported by public leaders with ambition of multi- and intermodal networks in which buses truly complement, cultivate and support mobility. Re-inventing bUSES Today’s modern bus concept is no longer that of a stagnant spider-web network of oversized, loud and loitering To achieve these goals for transit authorities and “diesel guzzlers”, but rather a dynamic and integrated customers, continuous service design and evaluation of set of services, supported by interactive communication network capacity is necessary to meet people’s evolving technologies, attractive and eye-catching branding and expectations and behaviors.

  • Financial Report 2020 Transdev, the Resilience of a Global Group in the Face of the Pandemic
    Financial report 2020 Transdev, the resilience of a global group in the face of the pandemic fter a good start to the year 2020 in line with the previous year, the Group's activity and results were strongly impacted, from March onwards, by the worldwide spread of the A COVID-19 pandemic. The year 2020 was a difficult period for all of us, a period that required exceptional measures. In the face of this unprecedented global health crisis, we all approached the situation together with calm, individual and collective responsibility, and continued to support public transportation autho- rities and businesses that entrusted us with the daily management of mobility in their territories, while ensuring the day-to-day safety of our employees and passengers. This global crisis - which is not over - has had a very strong human, operational and financial impact on the Group's business in all the countries where it operates. In this situation, we must collectively adapt our contracts to the new realities and expectations of our customers and passengers, continue to improve our performance, maintain strong financial discipline and, of course, strengthen our competitiveness. For the Group to continue its transformation, we must continue to demonstrate our resilience and our ability to adapt. As a number of calls for tenders kept running, we were able to record many commercial successes in 2020, particularly in the Paris region, Sweden (Stockholm, start of the Göteborg contract), Ger- many, the United States (San Diego, Phoenix, Nassau), the Netherlands, Australia, Portugal, etc. Throughout the year, despite the pandemic, we adapted to sanitary constraints and continued to fulfill our public service mission, accompanying our passengers and customers around the world on a daily basis.

    26 February 2019 Airport Regulation Inquiry Productivity Commission Locked Bag 2 COLLINS STREET EAST VIC 8003 Dear Commissioners INQUI12Y INTO ECONOMIC REGULATION OF AIRPORTS SUMMARY Of the 70 submissions made to the Productivity Commission (PC Draft Report), only eight were from individuals, even though the findings and recommendations potentially affect those who make 21 million one way annual international air journeys and 61 million domestic air journeys. It is concerning that this important inquiry making recommendations to government with ramifications for a very large number of individuals and businesses external to airlines and airports has yet to hear in public from any individual who uses these facilities. My focus is on Melbourne Airport and on maximising benefits to passengers, particularly with respect to landside rather than airside although I touch on the latter. Having read many Productivity Commission (PC) reports during the last 25 years, most have been of a very high standard, making many sensible recommendations that have led to economic efficiency and numerous community gains. The tariff and quotas debate under its predecessor was one example. This report, however, is the equal worst I have ever seen from the PC. Recommending another PC inquiry into the subject in 2024 (draft recommendation 10.3) is egregious. The draft report does not fall far short of appearing as a media release for Australia's major three east coast airports of Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane. The PC lacks understanding that consumers, as Airlines for Australia and New Zealand Chairman Graeme Samuel observed, 'wear the costs of airports' monopoly behaviours.' As the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission asserts, a series of reviews merely recommending the continuation of light-handed regulation has reduced the credibility of any threat to an airport exercising its market power.
