Peer Review

Receiving true objective advice can be very difficult for the strategic decisions that public transport organisations sometimes face. A peer review aims to solve this problem. A group of 4-5 members out of UITP’s extensive network will be carefully chosen based on  decades of operational experience in the sector. During a workshop (behind closed doors) on-site at the requesting organisation, each member will objectivily comment, advise and discuss the problems and solutions the public transport organisation is facing. A UITP staf member will act as an observer of the peer review and also act as a rapporteur of the workshop, structuring the discussions and advice in a helpful format.

A Peer Review can assess:

• Urban Transport Policies and Regulations
• Urban mobility plans for a city/region
• Public Transport Network & Operations
• Pricing , Fare Management and Fare Evasion
• Ticketing Systems
• Travel Information Systems, Signage and Wayfinding
• Safety and security
• Emergency Preparedness & Crisis Management
• Anti-Terrorism
• Human Resources Management
• Marketing Strategy & Revenue Management
• Asset & Maintenance Management
• Accessibility
• and many other topics

The Peer Review service is available to all UITP Members.
