5 Public Transport Infrastructure The introduction of a state of the art public Transport Infrastructure and Service is a significant investment. As an example: The MyCiti BRT in Cape Town Getting the best possible return for every stakeholder (whether it be the transport authority, transport operator or passenger) must be a firm commitment.

6 IT solutions in Public Transport IT solutions support core processes in all areas of a Public Transport Environment, such as Planning and Operations Management Passenger and Trip Information Fare Management Security Therefore, for Passengers, IT solutions facilitate easy and convenient access and use of Public Transport Services. for Public Transport Authorities and Operators, IT solutions enable efficient and effective utilization of their infrastructure and investment.

8 Intermodal Transport Control System (ITCS) ITCS The heart of a Public Transport IT Infrastructure ITCS is a computer aided dispatch and vehicle location system with real time communications between vehicles and control center and is able to provide real time passenger information through various channels. An integrated database captures all planning and operational data for analysis and statistics. ITCS helps to improve the efficiency of the entire operation, leads to a more reliable service and keeps the passengers informed. Stakeholders of ITCS-projects are: Transport authorities -> Sponsors Transport operators -> Service providers Passengers -> Users of public transport

10 Demanding Expectations Transport operators need to deal with... providing a greater service with limited funds, challenging expectations, exchanging information through various channels, increasing fuel costs, a shortage of resources, ITCS Solution Transport authorities want competition, a better quality of service for less money, a seamless service and flexible service modes, Passengers expect a better, safer and extended service, extensive information, smooth and reliable operation, better connections, shorter travel times,

11 Demanding Expectations Therefore Transport the challenges operators for the need entire to deal system with are as: providing a greater... service with limited funds, to provide demanding challenging expectations, and extended exchanging information services which are more reliable through and various more channels, flexible increasing and fuel less costs, resource a shortage of resources, consuming (money and manpower) to select and implement IT ITCS solutions which are prepared Solution and capable of supporting the operation in such an demanding environment Transport authorities How can want this be achieved? Passengers expect competition, a better quality of service for less money, a seamless service and flexible service modes, a better, safer and extended service, extensive information, smooth and reliable operation, better connections, shorter travel times,
