Competitive Tendering of Rail Services EUROPEAN CONFERENCE of MINISTERS of TRANSPORT (ECMT)
Competitive EUROPEAN CONFERENCE OF MINISTERS OF TRANSPORT Tendering of Rail Competitive tendering Services provides a way to introduce Competitive competition to railways whilst preserving an integrated network of services. 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.

ISSUE160 December 2013 Internet at www.railfuture.org.uk www.railfuture.org.uk/east html St.Paul's Church, Hills Rd, Cambridge is the new venue for our next Branch Meeting on Saturday, 7 December at 14.00 hrs. The main topic will be Cambridge Railway Station and its development within the larger scheme for CB1 submitted by Brookgate Developments. Our Guest Speaker will Geraint Hughes of Greater Anglia Railways with, hopefully, contributions from a representative of Brookgate. There will be plenty of opportunity for questions. The focus will not be on the Brookgate scheme per se, but on its relationship to the railway and its customers. So do join us for what promises to be a stimulating meeting. 1 NEWS Halesworth Station Footfall Count 2013 Railfuture East Anglia joined up with the East Suffolk Travellers' Association at Halesworth Station on October 17th to count the passengers using trains and buses from the station, Reports, Mike Farahar. The numbers were up an impressive 43% compared to the same time last year following the introduction of an hourly train service on the northern part of the Ipswich to Lowestoft line following investment in the passing loop at Beccles, and the improvements to the bus service between Halesworth and Southwold. Every train was surveyed,from 05.56 to 23.10 and 337 passengers boarded or alighted, compared to 235 in 2012. The number of bus transfers was also encouraging but would benefit from additional advertising including marketing the possibility of using the bus from Bungay as a feeder service into the trains.
