Annual Report 2016 2.02 MB 2016 Annual Report BusNSW Mission Statement BusNSW’s mission is to foster the efficient and sustainable growth of public transport in NSW and in doing so, to promote the benefits of bus and coach transport. To achieve this goal BusNSW offers its members a range of services that include business development and advocacy, designed to promote and enhance bus and coach transport for the benefit of the community of NSW.

The NSW government is embarking on major transport infrastructure projects while continuing to focus on improving customer experience and transport services. This is an ambitious program with a new “Transport Technology Road Map” (to plan for automated vehicles and other technological developments) and is requiring further changes to the structure of the NSW “transport cluster” (Transport for NSW, Roads and Maritime Services, etc). The roll out of a new generation of Rural and Regional Contracts was a major achievement for the industry. In 2016, we have seen a significant change in the public transport landscape with the introduction of “point to point” legislation and the formation of a point to point commission. It is important that the industry, through BusNSW, keeps ahead of the game in monitoring and reacting to this disruption of regular passenger services. BusNSW continues to be a highly respected industry association dedicated to growing public transport and demonstrating the benefits of government working in partnership with industry to grow bus and coach services in NSW. I encourage members to participate in their Branches and to get involved with BusNSW committees and events, particularly during the sustained period of change that we are currently experiencing. I would like to acknowledge the work of the BusNSW Board and Committees in 2016, and look forward to working with the NSW Government in 2017. Frank D’Apuzzo President 4 BusNSW Annual Report 2016 Executive Director’s Introduction I am pleased to provide this report for the 2016 year. I am particularly proud of BusNSW’s contribution toward researching and documenting 75 years of continuous service by the NSW bus industry to the community. The following two publications and a video clip have been produced to recognise and celebrate the industry’s history. • A Driving Force: The Private Bus Industry in NSW (commemorative booklet) • The Private Bus Industry in New South Wales: A Mirror of our Times (book) BusNSW continues to promote the growth of public transport and to highlight the advantages that bus and coach travel offers over other modes for meeting the Government and community’s needs for public transport. The work of BusNSW includes promoting improvements to transport policy and regulatory settings, particularly in relation to contracts and accreditation standards. The BusNSW governance system, described on page 44, is designed to ensure that all sectors of the industry are represented and coordinated, with the objective of moving people safely and efficiently. The changing contractual, accreditation and industrial environments and the pressures on small business were again a focus in 2016. For the year ahead I am optimistic that BusNSW member services will continue to be highly beneficial to members and that our relationships with key stakeholders will continue to grow. The future will present new challenges and opportunities as a result of the “NSW Transport Technology Road Map 2017 and Beyond”, released in November 2016. There is a strong ongoing requirement for timetabled route and school services and, the private bus and coach sector in NSW will continue to be dynamic and meet the expectations of the market. The safety of passengers, staff and the general public remains a high priority for the industry. In 2016, BusNSW made important contributions to the School Bus Safety Working Group and other initiatives including Bus Safety Week and a Bus Safety Forum. There is a continuing awareness of the value in increasing bus and coach services, as key decision makers understand the cost-benefit ratio, including the social and environmental gains, in providing more profile and priority to bus and coach services.

We acknowledge the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples as the First Peoples of Australia. Cumberland City Council also acknowledges other Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples living and working in the Cumberland Local Government Area. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF PARTICIPANTS Cumberland City Council would like to acknowledge and thank everyone who participated in this research. This report would not have been possible without your time and willingness to share your stories and experiences. Document Set ID: 8005199 Version: 9, Version Date: 13/08/2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report presents findings from research into key transport and mobility challenges for the Cumberland community. This research was conducted between August 2019 and April 2020 and is grounded in empirical data sourced from the Australian Bureau of Statistics and Transport for NSW, amongst other sources, and extensive community engagement. Quality transport options are fundamental to accessing many essential services, education, employment and social and recreational activities. Although three train lines run through the Cumberland LGA, in addition to the T80 high frequency bus route, many Cumberland residents still have difficulties getting around. Major barriers raised by the community relate to reliability, frequency and coverage of services.

  • Buses – Global Market Trends
    2017 BUSES – GLOBAL MARKET TRENDS Markets – Competition – Companies – Key Figures Extract from the study BUSES – GLOBAL MARKET TRENDS Markets – Competition – Companies – Key figures In all regions across the globe, buses remain the most widespread public transport mode. Their demand goes hand in hand with several, mostly region-specific factors, including demographics, increasing mobility of people and environmental awareness, as well as public funding. Buses are comparatively to other transportation modes cheap and easy to use, since their use does not necessarily require the implementation of a specific infrastructure. This makes buses ideal vehicles for both short- and long-distance services. Based on the current developments, this Multi Client Study offers a comprehensive insight into the structure, volumes and development trends of the worldwide bus market. In concrete terms, the market study “BUSES – GLOBAL MARKET TRENDS” includes: A look at the worldwide market for buses differentiated by region An analysis of the relevant market data including present and future market volumes Information concerning the installed fleet and future procurement potential until 2022 An assessment of current developments and growth drivers of the worldwide bus markets in the individual regions An overview of bus manufacturers including an analysis of the market shares, financial backups as well as a brief description of the current product portfolio and strategy outlook A list of the major production facilities in each of the regions including product range as well as production capacities Presentation of the development stage of alternative propulsions, their manufacturers and their occurrence worldwide The study is available in English from the August 2017 at the price of EUR 3,400 plus VAT.
