Travel to and Within Stockholm All Four of Stockholm’S Airports Are Connected to Downtown by Airport Coaches As Well As Municipal Alternatives Travel to and within Stockholm All four of Stockholm’s airports are connected to downtown by airport coaches as well as municipal alternatives. Stockholm Arlanda Airport (largest airport) Stockholm-Arlanda Airport is located 40 kilometres (25 miles) north of Stockholm City. Commuter trains operated by the public transport company in Stockholm, SL is the cheapest and suggested alternative cause you can buy a ticket for your whole stay (see below). The trains depart twice an hour from Arlanda Central Station in Sky City. Total travel time between the airport and Stockholm City Station is 43 minutes. Between terminals 4 and 5 there is an area called Sky City. All information signs from terminals with commuter train symbol will get you to Sky City. You buy the ticket to the commuter train at the information desk (swedavia) or Pressbyrån. You can buy single tickets or a travelcard for a whole time in Stockholm, including the ferry transports for the hostel. With a travelcard (recommended), you can travel as much as you like with SL for the whole stay. Travelcards are besides busses, commuter trains and subway, valid on the tram (Tram 7) going to Skansen and the island of Djurgården and also the ferries between Slussen and Djurgården. 7-day travelcard: SEK 325 + SEK 20. Valid from 00:00 on the first day of travel until 4:30 am on the day after the travelcard expires. An extra fee of 120 SEK is taken to travel from Arlanda to Stockholm city. Don’t forget to say that you want everything loaded on the card. In total it will be 465 SEK. Taxi services is quite expensive since Taxi fares in Sweden aren't regulated, which means that prices can vary significantly between companies. With this in mind, we recommend that you use the services of well-known firms like Taxi Stockholm, Taxi 020 and Taxi Kurir. You find them easily accessible outside all terminals. Single way from Arlanda to Stockholm is about 600 SEK. The Arlanda express is the quick, but still expensive alternative and train takes you from Arlanda Airport to the city center (Train station). The platform is easily accessible, underneath the arrival terminals. Departure: every 15 minutes (for most of the day). Travel time: 20 minutes. Tickets can be bought on this link. Bromma Stockholm Airport, Skavsta Airport, and Västerås Airport Flygbussarna Airport Coaches operates all airports, with departures timed with arrivals and departures at the airports. Travel time: 20 minutes (Bromma), 80 minutes (Skavsta) and 80 minutes (Västerås). Credit cards are accepted everywhere Arriving by train: Stockholm central station is centrally located in the Norrmalm district and has direct links to local public transport via metro and bus. Serves destinations across Sweden, as well as international services to Denmark, Norway, and Germany. Arriving by bus: Long distance buses and airport buses terminate at Cityterminalen, a centrally located bus station adjacent to Central Station and with good public transport links. Travelling within Stockholm • The zoo is accessible by bus, tram, or ferry, and is within walking distance of central Stockholm. Detailed instructions are available here: http://www.skansen.se/en/artikel/how-get-here • A range of ticket options are available for using public transport in Stockholm, including single use tickets and multi-day options. More information is available here: http://sl.se/en/ Travelling by car Parking is very limited on Djurgården island, so driving to the zoo is not recommended.

  • Competitive Tendering of Rail Services EUROPEAN CONFERENCE of MINISTERS of TRANSPORT (ECMT)

It has been used for freight Tendering railways in some countries but is particularly attractive for passenger networks when subsidised services make competition of Rail between trains serving the same routes difficult or impossible to organise. Services Governments promote competition in railways to Competitive Tendering reduce costs, not least to the tax payer, and to improve levels of service to customers. Concessions are also designed to bring much needed private capital into the rail industry. The success of competitive tendering in achieving these outcomes depends critically on the way risks are assigned between the government and private train operators. It also depends on the transparency and durability of the regulatory framework established to protect both the public interest and the interests of concession holders, and on the incentives created by franchise agreements. This report examines experience to date from around the world in competitively tendering rail services. It seeks to draw lessons for effective design of concessions and regulation from both of the successful and less successful cases examined. The work RailServices is based on detailed examinations by leading experts of the experience of passenger rail concessions in the United Kingdom, Australia, Germany, Sweden and the Netherlands.

  • Development of the Connectivity of Arlanda Airport
    Cristina Mestre Rodriguez Development of the connectivity of Arlanda Airport Degree Project in Built Environment TSC-BT 15-006 Department Transport Science Division of Transport planning, Economy and Engineering Stockholm, Sweden 2015 0 ABSTRACT This thesis analyzes the current transport situation of Arlanda Airport and the two main cities that Arlanda is located between, Stockholm and Uppsala. The purpose of the thesis is to study the efficiency of the different transport alternatives and also to relate it with their current market shares. Besides, in order to do a deeper analysis of Arlanda Airport connectivity some of the busiest airports transport links have been analyzed in terms of availability of different transport alternatives, distance to the city centers and market shares. Because of the high number of cars that currently go to Arlanda, there is a need to reduce the emissions of carbon dioxide. To this end, a prediction of the demand in ten years has been carried out to see what improvements have to be done to make Arlanda a more environmentally friendly airport. The methodology used in order to forecast the demand has been based on a survey conducted at a single point to regular users of the public transportation system. The improvement of the connectivity of Arlanda Airport via public transport alternatives will not only affect the distribution of the current market shares, but also represents a key strategy for pursuing Arlanda’s leadership in achieving environmental goals. Key words: connectivity, accessibility, airport link, demand, market share, Arlanda Airport, public transport, environment. 1 FOREWORD This thesis is the result of the research work I carried out during the last semester of my university studies in order to achieve the degree in Civil Engineering.
