    Review of actions of Smarter Travel Policy Smarter Travel: A Sustainable Transport Future, A New Transport Policy for Ireland 2009–2020 Review of the current implementation status of actions Smarter Travel: A Sustainable Transport Future, A New Transport Policy for Ireland was published in 2009. It set out national transport policy for 2009 to 2020 and contained 49 actions covering 4 themes. In the context of its work in reviewing Sustainable Mobility policy, the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport has undertaken a review of the implementation status of each of the actions that were put forward in the 2009 document. This information will help inform the public consultation on the Sustainable Mobility policy review. Some actions have been implemented as envisaged. In other cases, implementation has been partial, and may be ongoing, often reflecting the continuing nature of the initial proposal. There are some actions that have not been achieved. This report sets out, in tabular form, the 2019 status of each of the actions contained in the 2009-2020 policy. Each action is categorised using a Red-Amber-Green (RAG) status update to signify its current implementation status: Red: Minimal or no substantive progress; Amber Some substantive progress; and Green: Substantive progress or on-going implementation. References to sustainable transport/travel include public transport, cycling and walking. 1 Action Current Status Actions to Encourage Smarter Travel Action 1 .

  • LEAP CARD Expanding Ticketing While Shrinking Costs and Delivering Superior Customer Experience
    Uimhir/Number LEAP CARD Expanding Ticketing while Shrinking Costs and Delivering Superior Customer Experience In 2011, when Ireland’s National Transit Authority (NTA) introduced the Leap Card, a MIFARE product-based smart card for securely purchasing, storing, and using transport tickets, people were immediately drawn to its convenience and ease of use. Building on their initial success in Dublin, the NTA quickly began expanding service to other regions. Today the Leap Card is accepted in Cork, Galway, Limerick, Waterford, and Wexford, and supports more than 130 million journeys a year on bus, light- rail, and train services. More than 2.3 million Leap Cards are now in circulation, and the automatic fare collection (AFC) scheme generates more than 240 million Euros in revenue through ticket and top-up sales each year. Here’s what Leap Card has achieved in just 8 months with mobile integration: • 150,000 app downloads • 14,700+ mobile tickets collected • €19.8 million total top-ups • €2.12 million monthly usage rate (May 2017) • 13.9% mobile share of top-ups (May 2017) RAPID SUCCESS Success Story: Ireland Leap Card Release Date: May 2018 The Reload Challenge DESFire EV1 create a secure channel between the smart card The Leap Card was introduced in 2011 and with its rapid and the server, even if a smartphone is used as the card reader, expansion, however, came new challenges in terms of coverage so Leap Card users can be confident that their transactions will and convenience.

  • Opening Statement to the Oireachtas Committee of Public Accounts on 10Th October 2019
    PAC32-R-2439 A Meeting 10/10/2019 Opening Statement to the Oireachtas Committee of Public Accounts on 10th October 2019 I am grateful for the invitation to appear before the Committee today to discuss the National Transport Authority’s Annual Accounts for 2018. As requested by the Committee’s Secretariat we have furnished some information in advance. To assist in answering your questions I am accompanied by three Directors from the National Transport Authority – Hugh Creegan, Deputy CEO, Tim Gaston, Director of Public Transport Services, and Philip L’Estrange, Director of Finance and Corporate Services. Our remit is primarily concerned with the planning, development and funding of sustainable transport modes, that is to say public transport, cycling and walking. At a national level, the Authority has responsibility for securing the provision of bus and rail services. This includes the provision of subsidised services through directly awarded contracts with Bus Éireann, Dublin Bus and Irish Rail. The Authority also tendered for the provision of bus services across the country and our contracted operators include Go-Ahead Ireland Ltd, JJ Kavanagh, Bernard Kavanagh, M&A Coaches and Wharton’s Travel. The Authority is also responsible for light rail services which we procure jointly with Transport Infrastructure Ireland. The Authority also regulates and licenses public bus passenger services which operate without subsidy from the state. We also manage the Rural Transport programme on behalf of the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport. Associated with the bus, rail and light rail services, a key role for the Authority has been the integration of payment systems and information for public transport users.

Compliant with current accessibility and environmental standards for transport systems, it offers accessibility for all. This philosophy has been a cornerstone of the design development of the system from the initial phases of the project. Whilst focused on people with mobility and sensory impairments the fact is that the approach of “access for all” works for everyone as the name implies. Full Wheelchair access ensures no steps so pushchairs and buggies and people with luggage also feel the benefit of the universality of the design. Well thought out surfacing, furniture, stop facilities, clear signage, audio announcements and destination displays all serve to make the system easier to navigate. The TII and Luas operating company, Transdev have been proactive in establishing procedures and implementing staff training & awareness initiatives, which further enhance the accessibility of the system. As a new system some users will be unfamiliar with all the features which have been incorporated into the design to assist with accessibility.
