About

The context

                 

COVID- 19  has  turned  mobility  services  upside  down.  People  are  travelling  less  and  their  travel  patterns  are  subject  to  on-going  alteration.  Many  public  transport  operators  are struggling with having to make constant service adjustments due to reduced demand and having  to make service additions  due  to  imposed  requirements  for  social  distancing.  Fares are under tremendous pressure – many cities have waived fares or are heavily discounting them.   Under   these   circumstances, ensuring   financial   sustainability   of   public   transport services is a serious challenge. Implementing Non-Fare  Revenue  (NFR)  generation  strategies  are  a  practical and  pragmatic  way   to   cushion the current challenges  with public transport service provision.    NFR   builds collaborative partnerships and brings passengers back into public transport networks and service   facilities. It provides an accessible path  to long-term  sustainability of  public transort systems through creating steady streams of relatively ‘risk-free income’- income that leverages the fundamental characteristics and competitive advantages of public transport.
