DAY 1 26 JULY 2005

08:30 WELCOME AND OPENING ADDRESS BY CHAIR Dennis Baloyi, Manager: Acting GM: Transport CITY OF TSHWANE METROPOLITAN MUNICIPALITY

09:00 A DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORT PERSPECTIVE ON THE CURRENT STATE OF PUBLIC TRANSPORT

Lucky will give a national perspective on the current challenges that the public transport sector is facing. He will examine how these challenges can be managed by initiating solution providing changes within the industry, focussing on: • The Public Transport Challenge in SA: Managing changes in the Public

Transport Sector • Rail Consolidation process • Taxi Recapitalisation • Administration of Bus Subsidies - stimulating Public Transport in the

rural areas Lucky Montana, Deputy Director General DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORT

09:45 PERSPECTIVES ON THE INTEGRATION OF THE PUBLIC TRANSPORT SYSTEM

A user friendly, Integration of the Public Transport System will require an inclusive approach, within the entire value chain of the transportation stockholder’s community. The stakeholders within the value chain of transportation are as follows: • The Commuting Public - The Southern African Commuters Federation

(SACOF) • Taxi Drivers & Q-Marshalls Association (SANTADA) • Transport Operators: o Taxi Operators (SANTACO) o Bus Operators (SABOA) o Railways Operator (SARCC) • Labour (SATAWU) • Business • Government [DOT]The foundation and resources collectively, do exist – all that is left to be done is to evolve a strategic approach and model to achieve the strategic objective of delivering functioning integrated, world class public transport system before or by 2010. This session will discuss the development of a strategic approach across all the stakeholder groups. Pascall Moloi, President & Chief Executive Officer THE SOUTHERN AFRICAN COMMUTERS FEDERATION (SACOF)

10:30 MORNING TEA/COFFEE

11:00 INTEGRATING THE DIFFERENT MODES OF TRANSPORT EFFECTIVELY TO ACHIEVE A SMOOTH TRANSITION FROM ONE TO THE NEXT

“Harmonisation Between The Modes Of Public Transport Will Lead To Seamless Travel” – Sound Ideal? The up and coming World Cup in 2010 provides the perfect opportunity to make this ideal a reality. At the moment legislation is in disarray and the structures of authority are somewhat confusing. Responsibilities are spread across numerous portfolios in different sectors. In the rail sector the Department of Transport is responsible for the tracks while the Department of Public Enterprises is responsible for operations. Bus owners too would like to see a clearer hierarchy of authority for a more effective system which is required to produce results. Nceba Ncunyana will lay down a framework for understanding how seamless travel can be achieved: • Understanding the current system and where responsibilities in the

different modes of transport lie • Developing a framework to manage the integration of the various

modes of transport and transform the travel experience • Combining public transport components to produce effective transport

management and structures • Providing a practical way forward by using existing data Nceba Ncunyana, Deputy Director : Engineering AMATHOLE DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY

11:45 IMPROVING TRANSPORTATION SERVICES AND PRODUCTS FOR ALL COMMUTERS AND THE GENERAL PUBLIC

Robert Mashego will examine, from a Union perspective, the true effect that the current transport system is having on commuters and the companies they work for. He will examine the problem areas and look at what services can be implemented to promote the overall efficiency and safety of public transport • Assessing public attitudes to public transport • Defining the demographic profiles of commuters • Detailing the areas which are overloaded and the areas which are

under utilised • Understanding the circumstances of a commuter and serving their

needs Robert Mashego, Deputy President SOUTH AFRICAN TRANSPORT AND ALLIED WORKERS UNION

13:30 GAUTRAIN AS PART OF THE FUTURE INTEGRATED PUBLIC TRANSPORT SYSTEM IN TSHWANE - A LOCAL PERSPECTIVE

This highly controversial Gautrain Rapid Rail System is one of the proposed multi-billion Rand Blue IQ initiatives of the Gauteng Provincial Government. As a Blue IQ infrastructure development project, the Gautrain is supposed to support specific smart industries, high value added industries and tourism. Blue IQ projects are designed to improve the Gauteng economy and to

DRES

Sstrengthen the contribution of the above sectors to the Gauteng Gross Geographic Product (GGP). From the latest news reports it appears that the Gautrain will go ahead and that construction will start by the end of the year. The question is therefore not whether the investment is justifiable or not. The issues that now have to be addressed deal with, firstly, the restructuring of transport options and the choices to ensure optimal rider-ship and secondly, how it will support certain development objectives. This presentation will focus on development issues in Tshwane and suggest innovative ways to address them: • Improving access to the Gautrain service and intensifying the level of

service • Revitalising of the Pretoria Central Business District • Unlocking the tourism potential of the City • Improving the current Public Transport System • Enhancing the usage of public transport, particularly to middle and

higher income groups and to non-commuters • Relieving traffic congestion Kerneels Olivier, Deputy Manager: Integrated Transport Plan CITY OF TSHWANE METROPOLITAN MUNICIPALITY

14:15 ARE WE SERIOUS ABOUT PUBLIC TRANSPORT? Dr Mostert will give a research-driven perspective on the current Public Transport situation and the way forward, focussing on: • Factors that are contributing to the abnormal increase in car ownership

and usage • The resulting overspending on private motoring and the negative

impact of this on the economy • The role that Public Transport should be playing to improve the situation • Creating a culture of Public Transport – what does it involve and who is

responsible? • The development of an integrated, rationalised and co-ordinated

formal Public Transport network • The role of Gautrain – is it a serious attempt to improve Public Transport? • The way forward – what will we be able to show by 2010? Dr Vaughan Mostert, Senior Lecturer: Department Of Transport And Supply

09:00 ESTABLISHMENT OF ETHEKWINI TRANSPORT AUTHORITY (ETA): A SOLUTION TO PUBLIC TRANSPORT?

Victor Baloyi will give a broad overview of the ETA and discuss various issues that need to be taken into account to achieve a real solution to public transport. He will discuss how eThekwini Municipality went about setting up an ETA and the long term benefits of this structure by examining a five year action plan and challenges. • Ethekwini Transport Authority Area At A Glance o Historical transport scenarios o KwaZulu natal district municipalities o eThekwini transport authority area o Municipal area demographics o Current transportation system: – Transport system characteristics – Freight transport – Road Safety – road safety accident statistics and identifying

high accident locations • Case for change • Setting up eTA o The process o Benefits of TA o eTA structure o Functions of eTA o Critical outputs • ETA revenue sources and strategies • Five years action plan • Challenges Victor Baloyi, Head of Transport eTHEKWINI MUNICIPALITY

09:45 COMMUTER RAIL IN THE WESTERN CAPE - UP AGAINST THE STOP BLOCK?

Metrorail Western Cape, the metropolitan commuter rail operator for the greater Cape Town area hit a low point in 2001 with a spate of murders hitting the media headlines, a significant number of cable thefts leading to ongoing service disruptions, a reduction of operating subsidy in real terms, and an ageing train fleet, all resulting in declining passenger numbers and a customer satisfaction index of 35%. The 2004/ 2005 financial year reflected the ongoing recovery with a 10% year on year growth in revenue in real terms, ISO 9000:2000 Quality Management System accreditation, a significant decline in crime, fare evasion dropping from approximately 18% to between 4 - 6% and with a customer service index rating achieving a peak of 64%. All this was achieved in spite of reduction in the availability of rolling stock due to an ageing fleet. This paper will look at the recovery strategy and its implementation in the form of a brief case study: • Strategic recovery plan and its phases • Quality management and its role as a catalyst in the recovery • Operational restructuring and the incremental approach used

10:30 MORNING TEA/COFFEE

11:00 IDENTIFYING THE ROLE OF THE TAXI IN INTEGRATED PUBLIC TRANSPORT SYSTEMS

The taxi system that currently operates in South Africa must play a role in the integrated public transport system of the future. This is generally agreed across the major transport modes, but it raises two major problems: 1) Integrated systems will be planned and operated to provide seamless

travel for passengers. This implies a high level of formal organisation, including contracting and the operation of services according to those contracts. Today’s taxi industry is firmly in the informal sector. What will be needed to facilitate the transition of the industry from the informal to the formal sector of transport so that it can contribute to the new integrated systems?

2) The small-vehicle taxi will be used for feeder/distributor services to mainline bus and train. The effect will be that fewer taxis are needed than are on the roads today.

• Will this be acceptable to the industry? • Is it desirable in the light of national policies on Black Economic

Empowerment? • How will the R20bn black investment be safeguarded?In this session Tom Muofe will discuss these problem areas and suggest how transport policy might be adapted to deal with them. Tom Muofe, President SOUTH AFRICAN NATIONAL TAXI ASSOCIATION

11:45 UNDERSTANDING THE IMPLICATIONS OF THE TAXI RECAPITALISATION PROGRAMME FOR YOUR ORGANISATION

Imagine our roads with smart new stylish mini-taxis, vehicles which produce minimal air pollution and which run on predetermined set routes so as to avoid congestion. Vehicles offering a smooth and safe ride home to all sectors of the population. The first step towards making this vision a reality is “The Taxi Recapitalisation Programme”. The Department of Transport has been rigorously involved with the recapitalisation process over the past 5 years and the recent announcement of the seven year roll out plan has sparked enormous interest. This programme takes effect on 1 April 2005 and is an optional programme onto which each Taxi owner may enroll. Reg Mutsi will discuss the programme in detail and reveal the complete roll-out plan. In this session you will be: • Discussing the Financial implications to taxi owner, commuter and

government • Addressing the benefits of the Electronic Management System

(E.M.S.) • Understanding a new work dispensation for drivers • Probing the implications and the effects it will have on other Modes of

transport Reg Mutsi, Managing Director SANTACO TRADING (PTY) LTD

12:30 LUNCH

13:30 PLANNING STRATEGIES TO ENSURE SUSTAINABLE SUCCESS IN PUBLIC TRANSPORT

Think global and act local is the economist’s plea. To choose the “quick fix” approach which suggests pouring R13billion just to ensure the World Cup 2010 runs smoothly and then be left with a infrastructural “white elephant” would be foolish. Scenario planning will enable you to cater for the World Cup 2010 and more importantly the growing needs of South Africa’s commuters into the future. Brad Coward will play out these scenarios from a bio-regionalism perspective - a term which suggests that all the possible variables which could have an influence on the transport system are to be investigated. This will ensure that South Africa can comprehensively prepare and plan for all the possible alternatives, and fully understand the potential pitfalls and avoid them. • Accounting for all macro and micro influences • Preparing a number of “what-if” scenarios to cover different

possibilities • Providing a methodology for predicting the best way forward • Establishing measurement tools to assess success of the project Bradley Coward, Managing Director RIVERSTONE CONSULTING

02:15 NOVEL WAYS OF INTRODUCING USING NON-INTRUSIVE TECHNOLOGIES TO SAFEGUARD ROAD AND RAIL INFRASTRUCTURE, IMPROVE UTILITY, AND INTRODUCE BETTER BILLING METHODS

Central to public transport and its effectiveness is the infrastructure used. This is where the bulk of the investment lies. If infrastructure is not closely monitored, it can be unnecessarily damaged and its life drastically reduced. This means higher cost of maintenance and repair, which will ultimately be passed down to the commuter. Careful application of modern technology can help reduce wear and damage, and thus reduce infrastructure life-cycle costs. This session will focus on: Infrastructure damage is extremely costly, and needs better protection from damage • New technologies are available to radically reduce road and rail

abuse • On-line statistics can be effectively used to improve utility • Help modify the behaviour of offenders that damage road and rail. Chris Uys, Director MOTSWEDI TLC
