Overview
Background & policy context:
The public transport sector in the Czech Republic was quite closed and dominated by several oligopolistic providers of transport services. Changes and opening of this transport sector might be desirable.
Objectives:
The objective of the project was to update the survey of ticketing systems based on smart cards in various areas of passenger transport, to create an analysis of legislative barriers that prevent the use of contactless smart cards and the co-operation among transport systems.
Methodology:
Following steps were provided:
- Analysis of ticketing systems in the Czech Republic and suggestion of standards in this field of public transport
- Survey among users of ticketing systems in PT (transport operators, organizers of public transport and public authorities, passengers).
- Analysis pf public service contracts and adoption of EC Regulation on PT services by rail and by road.
These methodologies were applied:
- Methodology for market access of a new carrier on regular public transport service;
- Methodology for assessment of complex conditions for public transport carriers before entering on the market of public transport;
- Methodology of organization of urban freight transport in the Czech Republic.
