|
| Creation of an integrated ticketing systems | The integration of different operators and modes of transport into the same fare system may remarkably facilitate collective travel by buses and coaches. Example: PLUSBUS is a recently created UK nation-wide integrated ticketing scheme for bus and train travel. The passenger pays for the entire bus and train journey in one transaction. Althoughin its beginnings, during the financial year 2006-07, approximately 77,000 PLUSBUS tickets were sold, which represents an increase of 55% in comparison with the previous year’s figures. | For more information: IRU Eurochallenge Award 2007 – PLUSBUS

They offer passengers more flexibility and a broader choice of paying for their tickets, whilst adapting to a modern “electronic purse lifestyle”. Example: In Vienna, tickets can be ordered and paid for with a mobile phone. A text message has to be sent to a certain number and the ticket will be sent as a text message back to the mobile phone. The price of the ticket is then included in the monthly mobile phone invoice. Across the United Kingdom, Stagecoach has introduced the so called “tap and go” technology, which allows passengers to buy their tickets on-board with their bankcards. | For more information: Handy Fahrschein, Wien

Example: New solar-powered ticket machines were installed in the city of Manchester by Stagecoach and Greater Manchester Passenger Transport Executive. More than 70 on-street ticket machines can also be found on the streets of Brussels. | For more information: Greener Smarter Together, Corporate Social Responsibility Report 2009, Stagecoach group,
