So yeah, it’s not really a debate of ‘this (metro) or that (buses)’. It’s more of a ‘this and that’ scenario. And we’ll do well to remember this as we ferociously expand our metro connectivity. #metrorail #transportation #profitability

I find it interesting that the metro itself might not be enough to attract people to use public transport. The key seems to be the last mile connectivity. Many software companies provide cab services to their employees, making it easy because they don't have to pay for the cab and need not worry about catching a bus or an auto to get to the office after deboarding the metro. Additionally, people might also consider walking at least 1 km if the footpath infrastructure is as good as it should be. So, the government should not only construct metros but also focus on surrounding infrastructure like footpaths, feeder buses, and more. https://lnkd.in/gGgiCYgg #metrorail Finshots #roadtransport

Alstom has delivered the inaugural Flexity Tram to Toronto, marking a significant step forward in the city's public transportation system. he Flexity Tram introduction signals Toronto's transit system's move toward modernisation. These trams are set to elevate passenger experience and support the city's mobility goals. Alstom's Flexity Tram boasts advanced tech and design. These features promise improved efficiency and sustainability in Toronto's public transport. With these trams hitting the tracks, Toronto could see changes in traffic, environmental sustainability, and overall urban mobility. Alstom's delivery of the first Flexity Tram to Toronto is a promising development, hinting at a more efficient and comfortable transit future for the city. Take a look at the article here: https://bit.ly/3SSMMXP and share your thoughts. How might these new trams reshape Toronto's commuting landscape? #TransitInnovation #FlexityTram #TorontoTransit #UrbanMobility #FutureOfTransit

The design and functionality of rail stations play a pivotal role in shaping the overall experience of passengers, and adopting a gender-responsive approach is fundamental to creating safe, inclusive environments for all. On March 7, SmithGroup senior mobility strategist Janet L. Attarian and a panel of international mobility experts will come together at TRAIN 2B EQUAL, an online workshop focused on gender-responsive design for rail stations and infrastructure. Hosted by the UIC - International union of railways #UICrail, this event focuses on equitable public transportation and aims to address the critical aspects of security, safety, accessibility and general comfort for those utilizing rail services, with an emphasis on the safety and experiences of women. Janet Attarian and fellow presenters will share best practices in rail station design (with a focus on initiatives led by California High-Speed Rail Authority) and will explore how holistic design and urban planning solutions that incorporate walking, cycling and connections to other modes of transport can further enhance the public transit experience.

The Evolution of Metro Rail: A Transformative Journey for Indian Cities | Read more: https://lnkd.in/ePe4mh63 #transformative #journey #india #news #metro #rail #metrorail Metro Rail Today

Tramways have long been a staple of urban transportation, usually drawing power from overhead lines. However, there is another innovative approach, the Ground-Level Power Supply (GLPS). This system allows trams to collect electric power at ground level from individually-powered segments, offering several advantages over the conventional overhead lines. Unlike the third rail systems used in some railways, which are continually powered and pose a risk to pedestrians and vehicles, GLPS segments can be controlled by radio. These segments automatically switch on or off depending on whether a tram is passing over them. This radio-controlled activation ensures there is no risk to other road users, as the segments are only electrified when necessary. As cities continue to evolve and prioritize sustainability and safety, ground-level power supply represents a significant advancement in tramway technology, offering a cleaner, safer, and more efficient means of urban transportation.

🚌 Great move. If we're going to take advantage of the huge investment in trains, metro lines and light rail across Sydney, the first step has to be designing bus services that feed passengers onto the rail lines >> https://lnkd.in/gJe2EcdW The next step, and what's really needed, is a whole-of-bus-network review and optimisation for Sydney, to make sure our public transport modes are complementing each other - not competing.   Optimising bus services when new rail lines open would mean some buses can be redeployed and used to increase the frequency of other services in the network - without additional investment in the bus fleet.   To make this work, buses connecting to rail need to run frequently enough that it's easy to travel across multiple modes - whether it's bus, tram, train or any other form of transport. People need to be able to turn up and go.    👀 Keep your eyes peeled for our upcoming report on improving Sydney's bus network.

Île-de-France Mobility’s 2023 punctuality “satisfactory” While punctuality and service quality had significantly deteriorated between September and December 2023, the situation is now improving at RATP on the Paris metro. However, some issues persist, many of which are external factors to the operators, such as extensive construction works and traffic conditions complicated by urban development.  In 2023, the train and RER […] https://lnkd.in/eS5-pW_t #railindustry #rail #railtech
