Introduction This report examines air-to-surface access integrated ticketing in support of one of the Department for Transport’s (DfT) six policy objectives in the proposed new avia- tion strategy – “Helping the aviation industry work for its customers”. Integrated Ticketing is defined as the incorporation of one ticket that includes sur- face access to/from an airport and the airplane ticket itself using one transaction. Integrated ticketing may consider surface access journeys both to the origin airport and from the destination airport. We recognise that some of the methods of inte- grated ticketing might not be truly integrated (such as selling rail or coach tickets on board the flight), but such examples were included in the report to reflect that these exist and that the customer experience in purchasing is relatively seamless. -

Bike Carriage on Long-Distance Trains: 7 Basic Services That Give Cyclists a Smile
Bike carriage on long-distance trains: 7 basic services that give cyclists a smile A collection of good practice examples from across Europe Authors: Fabian Küster and Ed Lancaster 4/17/2013 Summary In April 2012, ECF published the position paper “Bike and Train: A European Odyssey”.1 In the paper we deplored the fact that the services offered by railway companies often do not meet the basic requirements of cyclists and that current EU law2 on passenger rights for railway customers does not help to advance this matter in a legally binding manner. Fortunately, some railway undertakings have taken measures in recent years to improve the services they offer to cyclists, albeit that this has often been after continuous pressure from ECF’s members. It speaks for itself that the cycling community has welcomed these steps. Other railway companies should follow suit, for 2 main reasons: Attract new customers: Cycling tourism is a booming business, with well over 2.3 billion cycle tourism trips annually in Europe3. A service package that meets the needs of cycling tourists has the potential to attract millions of additional train passengers. A key message ECF made back in 1999 still holds true: “Only bicycle transport by train offers the flexibility to choose the starting point and destination of a cycling trip freely and this is a promising market for all rail investors to invest in.”4 The financial crisis and continuous drop in car sales, along with changing mobility behaviour, in particular among young adults in urban areas, has the potential to win customers for life. -

What Is Integrated Ticketing?
Integrated Ticketing Strategy and Delivery Plan INDEX • Executive summary • Background • Current position of Ticketing In Nottinghamshire • Scheme Design, Timeline, Promotion and Governance • Consultation What is Integrated Ticketing? Multi-operator integrated ticketing is an important aspect of realising the County Council’s vision for a better bus service. It makes using buses more convenient, reliable and flexible for passengers, allowing them to use services from a range of operators. Executive Summary The bus network is important as a means to providing accessibility and transport choice to the community, delivering benefits to society including accessibility, transport choice, congestion management, CO2 reductions and helps to stimulate economic growth. The 1985 Transport Act set the scene for the deregulation of the bus industry, and therefore it is essential that bus operations are well integrated and affordable. This Strategy sets out the importance of integrated ticketing to passengers to help sustain a strong and vibrant commercial network. It explains how we move forward towards transport integration in the context of the Nottinghamshire County Council Strategic Plan (2014-2018) 1, Local Transport Plan (up to 2026) 2 and Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) 3 priorities. This will include the legal framework, government policy and guidance and outlines from 2014-2026 Nottinghamshire County Council’s vision for Integrated Ticketing. This document sets out how Integrated Ticketing will be delivered once scheme design, price, partnership arrangements and funding is secured, with an ambitious timeline for implementation. Background The use of public transport is important to tackle congestion, rising CO2 levels and improving access to employment, training, health, leisure and shopping opportunities. -
Heterogeneity in Demand and Oprimal Price Conditioning for Local Rail Transportation
Heterogeneity in Demand and Oprimal Price Conditioning for Local Rail Transportation Evgeniy M. Ozhegov∗ National Research University Higher School of Economics. Research Group for Applied Markets and Enterprises Studies. Research fellow [email protected] Alina Ozhegova National Research University Higher School of Economics. Research Group for Applied Markets and Enterprises Studies. Junior research fellow [email protected] May 31, 2019 Abstract This paper describes the results of research project on optimal pricing for LLC "Perm Local Rail Company". In this study we propose a regression tree based approach for estimation of demand function for local rail tickets considering high degree of demand heterogeneity by various trip directions and the goals of travel. Employing detailed data on ticket sales for 5 years we estimate the parameters of demand function and reveal the significant variation in price elasticity of demand. While in average the demand is elastic by price, near a quarter of trips is characterized by weakly elastic demand. Lower elasticity of demand is correlated with lower degree of competition with other transport and inflexible frequency of travel. I. Introduction Local rail transportation in Russia is an important part of public transport system, as it is often the only way for people to move between locations. At the same time, due to the large length of the arXiv:1905.12859v1 [econ.EM] 30 May 2019 tracks and the distance between large settlements, regional passenger companies cannot cover the costs of operating local rail transport by the revenue from ticket sales. For instance, the revenue of LLC Perm Local Rail Company (PPK) in 2017 amounted to 596 million rubles (near 1 mln. -

Integrated Ticketing and Tariffs in Krakow
Measure title: Integrated ticketing and tariffs in Krakow Measure City: Project: 8.10 Krakow Caravel number: A Introduction A1 Objectives The measure objectives are: • To increase patronage in PT by 10% (on Krzeszowice-Krakow corridor) • To improve the quality of passenger movement in the wide-city area • To test a solution of an integrated ticketing and tariff solution between local public transport and the National Railway line in Krzeszowice-Krakow corridor • To decrease the amount of private cars getting into the city (people from outside Krakow going to/from- work) A2 Description Within this measure the City of Krakow will perform a test of an integrated ticketing and tariff solution between local PT and national railway. Due to limited budget possibilities this measure will be focused on 1 line (currently decided in Krzeszowice - Krakow corridor). With the integrated ticketing and tariff solution, an increase of public transport use by 10% in Krzeszowice - Krakow corridor is expected. Research and technological development activities like: design of the integrated tariff and ticketing system, including the selection of lines in Krzeszowice - Krakow corridor; assumptions for integrated tariff system; agreements with PKP (National Rail Company); development of technical specifications of design of the integrated tariff and ticketing system; start of design of the integrated tariff and ticketing system including study on the type of ticket (in aim of chip-ticket), study on the technological and organizational side of the measure; selection of lines in Krzeszowice-Krakow corridor. B Measure implementation B1 Innovative aspects The innovative aspects of the measure are: • New conceptual approach - The “ Integrated ticketing and tariffs in Krakow” will be the first official system in Malopolska region where people can buy integrated tickets which allow them to use both local public transport and National Railway line in the Krzeszowice-Krakow corridor. -
Getting My Tram Ticket
® Getting my tram ticket Department of Transport Images taken before the COVID-19 pandemic, you must wear a face mask while travelling on public transport. 2 Many people use trams to travel in Melbourne. I might take a tram to go somewhere. Some tram stops in Melbourne’s city centre are in an area called the Free Tram Zone. People do not need a ticket to travel between tram stops in this area. 3 People know which stops are in the Free Tram Zone by looking at the route maps, looking at the signs at the stop or by asking Yarra Trams staff. Outside of the Free Tram Zone, it’s important that everyone has a ticket to travel on the tram. 4 There are several types of tickets. Before I catch the tram, I choose the right type of ticket for me. Most people use a ticket called a myki. 5 mykis can be bought from Public Transport Victoria (PTV) Hubs and some myki machines. People also buy them at some shops like 7-Eleven. mykis can also be used on an android phone. This is called Mobile myki. 6 The cost of travel on my myki is called the fare. I can check the fares on the PTV website. I need to put money onto a myki to travel on the tram. This is called topping up my myki. I could do this at a myki machine, PTV Hub or online at ptv.vic.gov.au. 7 Trams have a myki reader near each door. They can look different depending on the tram.
