  • PATCO New Automated Fare Collection System, Smart Card Or Magnetic- Your Choice
    PATCO New Automated Fare Collection System, Smart card or Magnetic- Your choice PATCO’s new fare collection system will feature the FREEDOM card, which will revolutionize how customers purchase their fares and travel on the PATCO system. The FREEDOM card is a smart card that will provide a high level of convenience and reliability to customers who use PATCO consistently. For customers who do not opt to use the FREEDOM card or who use PATCO infrequently, new magnetic tickets will be available. In PATCO’s current fare system, plastic tickets that use first generation magnetic technology are used. Although that technology was state of the art several decades ago, the technology is outdated and the tickets are prone to damage by devices commonly found in today’s environment. Unlike the current tickets, which are re-encoded numerous times for use after being captured by the fare gates, the new magnetic tickets will be paper tickets and will not be reused after capture. The new magnetic tickets can be purchased using either cash or coins. This means that customers choosing to purchase a ticket will not have to first stop at a change machine to convert their bills to coins. Both one- and two-ride tickets can be purchased from all new ticket vending machines located outside the fare gates. A customer wishing to purchase a magnetic ticket will simply select the prompt on the ticket vending machine screen for purchase of a ticket and then select the destination and whether a single ride or double ride ticket is desired. The ticket vending machine will list the price of the purchase.

  • The Simulation of Passengers' Time-Space Characteristics Using
    Computers in Railways XII 419 The simulation of passengers’ time-space characteristics using ticket sales records with insufficient data J.-C. Jong & E.-F. Chang Civil & Hydraulic Engineering Research Center, Sinotech Engineering Consultants, Inc, Taiwan Abstract It is a very common approach for any business to analyze their historical sales records to adjust operation strategy. Recently, Taiwan Railway Administration, a government-owned railway operator, faces serious competitions from other transportation systems. It becomes very urgent for the operator to modify its timetables to meet demand patterns for increasing revenue. The key issue is how to estimate passengers’ time-space characteristics. For railroads with advanced automatic fare collection systems and simple service patterns, the estimation of passenger flow may not be difficult since detailed travel information is available. However, for systems with mixed traffic and insufficient ticket sales records, it requires a scientific method to deduce actual travel patterns from limited information. This study tried to establish such a model to reconstruct the time- space distribution of passenger flow. The model has been applied to Taiwan Railway Administration to estimate passenger flow. The result is very useful for decision makers to assess the utilization of train capacities and to adjust service plans, such as adding/deleting train services, changing stopping patterns, or modifying service termini. The proposed model can be applied to other railroads with mixed traffic operations and insufficient ticket sales records. Keywords: passenger flow estimation, ticket sales records. 1 Introduction Taiwan Railway Administration (TRA) is the oldest railway operator that provides intercity, regional and commuter train services in Taiwan.

  • Comprehensive Station Plan (Part B)
    Daly City Comprehensive Station Plan 5.0 Station Access ith the Station Area so constrained by topography, development patterns, high traffic volume arterials and I-280, achieving BART and community goals of more balanced station access relying less on the automobile is a prime concern, as described in the Existing Conditions and Vision chapters above. BART’s 2002 Station Access Plan developed specific recommendations to effect these changes, in partnership with the City of Daly City, San Francisco, Caltrans and local transit operators (Muni and SamTrans). Access Projects Underway Since the Access Plan was completed in 2002 and reviewed in several community meetings, the one- sidewalk, poorly-lit St. Charles Bridge has become a major focus of community and access concern. A “Transportation for Livable Communities” grant from the Metropolitan Transportation Commission was awarded to BART in 2004, and matched by a funding commitment from Caltrans and in-kind cooperation from the City of San Francisco and BART, the St. Charles Bridge project is fully funded and implementation underway at the time of this writing. The project features a second sidewalk on the south side of the bridge, six new, pedestrian- scaled streetlights and two safety railings on the bridge, new streetlights, a crosswalk and a sidewalk on BART property, and a provision for artwork. This project is fully consistent with the Access Plan and the Communtiy Vision Plan. After the community workshops in October and November 2005, BART, Daly City and Caltrans staff met to review the feasibility of a new surface- St. Charles Bridge Improvements level crosswalk near the intersection of John Daly TOP: Previous Condition (no south sidewalk, no safety and Junipero Serra Blvds.
