The #Italian infrastructure manager Rete Ferroviaria Italiana (#RFI) launched #EasyRailFreight, a new app that will bring logistics operators and their customers closer together. The former can use the app to offer their services, while the latter will be able to search for the most suitable offer through one single platform. This is the first time that such an initiative is carried out by a #European infrastructure manager. #railfreight #railfreightnews #railcargonews

Unlock the Power of Interoperability! 🚌🚈🚡🛥️ In today's interconnected world, an interoperable ticketing system isn't just a convenience. It's a necessity. As the lines between metros, buses, and trams blur, this integration paves the way for a unified travel experience, and the ease of paying using single media on multiple modes has resulted in increased passenger satisfaction. For transit operators, it's all about promoting more use of public transport, simplified tariffs, the ease of scaling up payment methods across multiple systems, reduced fare infrastructure costs, and improved passenger satisfaction. For passengers, it means having just one card for multiple modes of transportation rather than juggling multiple cards, simple transfers between different transport modes, and cost savings from discounted and flexible ticketing. #interoperability #publictransit #farecollection

In this week’s PTAANZ #TopTransportNews, New Zealand’s new ticketing payment system, Motu Move, aims to enhance convenience for passengers and encourage public transport use across the nation. New Zealand's National Ticketing Solution (NTS), in partnership with the NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi (NZTA) and 13 regional Public Transport Authorities, will introduce contactless debit or credit cards, digital payment methods, and Motu Move cards for public transport rolling out in Canterbury this December. Supplier, Cubic Transportation Systems, has been preparing and testing the NTS to ensure a seamless experience. Dino Beverakis, Vice President of Cubic Transport, highlights how these new payment options will simplify public transport use and improve the customer experience. “The new payment options will remove barriers to public transport use for those who don’t currently carry a prepaid card or who travel in different regions,” Beverakis says. “It will also make using public transport easier for visitors and first-time users as they won’t need to worry about buying a separate prepaid card.” PTAANZ is thrilled to see how these initiatives will benefit passengers, making public transport more accessible and user-friendly.

Transparency remains pivotal for cross-service ticket distribution Seamless ticket booking across different services in the form of a one-stop shop service is still far from being implemented effectively in European rail. Despite the EU initiative for a Single Standard for Ticket Distribution, industry representatives stress that it could end up being a fiasco if the right regulatory measures are not in place.… https://lnkd.in/gCJuHu59 #railindustry #rail #railtech

🔑 Unlocking transit inclusion: Insights from North American transit expert Jamie Geleynse How can transit serve diverse passenger needs better? Jamie Geleynse, Director of Business Development North America at Scheidt & Bachmann, discussed inclusive fare payment solutions at the CUTA Spring Summit in May. Here are some key takeaways from his presentation: 🚉 An Open Payment Solution: Contactless payment methods can address 95% of passengers’ fare preferences, offering convenient options for most passengers. Yet, acknowledging the 5% who rely on cash underscores the need for flexible payment methods to ensure inclusivity for all. 🛤️ Avoiding One-Size-Fits-All Solutions: Jamie stressed the importance of tailored approaches, recognizing the diverse needs of transit users. Cookie-cutter solutions often fall short; personalized strategies are vital for fostering truly inclusive transit systems. 🎫 Fare Structure Alignment: Aligning fare structures with ridership behavior and type is crucial for promoting fare payment inclusivity. Understanding passengers' unique needs enables transit agencies to design fair, affordable structures that encourage increased ridership. 🔓 Removing Barriers to Fare Purchasing: Addressing ticketing accessibility, payment options, and purchase locations is important to help ensure all passengers can easily access transit services. Let's work together to create transit systems that prioritize inclusivity and accessibility for everyone. 🚇💼 #TransitInclusion #PublicTransport #FareCollectionSystems

Independent ITS Advisor || Assisting Public Transport Providers implement ITS effectively & profitably
Understanding Interoperability in Transport! Interoperability is a technical term that often confuses and misleads many transport providers when evaluating and/or implementing ITS (Intelligent Transportation Systems). To help clarify, here is a simple, non-technical definition of interoperability from a commuter’s perspective: Interoperability means having a “seamless travel experience”. It is an AFC (Automated Fare Collection) technology feature that allows commuters to use the same fare media across different types of transportation modes and operators. The key benefit is that commuters can switch between different transport services without needing multiple fare media (i.e. e-tickets or payment methods). Interoperability benefits the commuter and enhances the customer experience. For this reason, it will be the single most important factor in increasing or maintaining ridership for transport providers in South Africa moving forward. Therefore, it is of outmost importance that your AFC System supports interoperability. Investing in interoperability today will ensure success tomorrow and will eliminate many other risks arising from an inoperable system. #Interoperability #Transportation #ITS #SmartTransport #SeamlessTravel #AFC #PublicTransport #TransportInnovation #CustomerExperience #Ridership #SouthAfricaTransport
