Podcasts about Public transport

A new service allows employees to pay for public transport from their pre-tax income - how much can they save?

What is ‘public' about our urban and regional transport systems - and how public should they be? Are our leaders actually serving public interests and values around public transport? Should a stick in the ground really count as a bus stop? And what the heck is a 'beg button'? In this episode of City Road a rich panel of speakers delve into the big questions surrounding public transport at the recent Festival of Urbanism, including Dr Ian Woodcock, Emma Bacon, Neill Miller, David Babineau, Dr Rebecca Clements and Dr Crystal Legacy.

Bus driving and social media influencing does not sound like it goes hand in hand, but some drivers are making it work. Ke-Xin Li reports.

According to UK government data, a total of 6.5 billion passenger journeys were completed using public transport vehicles like buses, trains and tram systems, in the year to March 2023.  Packed platforms, overcrowded carriages and uncertain schedules are just some of the issues public transport commuters have to deal with on a regular basis, not to mention the occasional strike. Being crammed into a tube, bus or train with other commuters can make you feel oppressed, fatigued or even suffocated. Some people experience dizziness and anxiety, and fainting isn't uncommon. What about psychological impacts? Public transport always seems dirty too, doesn't it? How can I safeguard my health then? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

A vast change to what's been promised for Auckland City Rail Link's opening capacity. In 2022, it was reported 27 thousand peak passengers would be using the rail line from opening day next year. That's now gone down to 19 thousand passengers an hour at peak times. AT Public Transport Director Stacey van der Putten told Mike Hosking the 27 thousand figure merged a few different elements including design capacity, timetabling, and patronage. She points out that 19,000 is still a significant increase on current numbers, as it's still a 50% increase in patronage. Van der Putten told Hosking it will take some effort to rebuild confidence in the rail network after the prolonged disruption, but there's plenty of enthusiasm for the new line.

Sunil Sharpe, spokesperson for Give Us The Night, discusses his group's report on the Irish nightclub sector.

Whether it's a bus, train or subway, using any kind of public transport or transit system when you're travelling can be very eye-opening (and a lot of fun!). In my opinion it's a much better way to get to know a place you're visiting, and of course it's also usually the most budget-friendly way of getting around, another bonus. In this episode you'll hear from four guests who have stories to share about their use of public transport across the world. Ros Belford has some lovely stories about bus drivers in Italy; Martha Waslen talks about the famous subway of New York and the nearly equally well-known trains of Tokyo; Scott Antcliffe compares his experience of public transport in the UK with recent travels in Singapore and Berlin; and Megan Frye gives a good explanation of some of the reasons why public transport helps you get to know a city, and even a country.

In five years, self-driving vehicles could ply Singapore’s roads and eventually change the dynamics of driving, said Acting Transport Minister Jeffrey Siow. Autonomous vehicles (AVs) are part of plans to improve the country’s public transport system, which the newly minted politician has declared as his priority. What role will AVs play in shaping the future of urban mobility in Singapore? How will this shift impact drivers, commuters, and existing transport infrastructure? And what challenges lie ahead in integrating these technologies into daily life? On The Big Story, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Terence Fan, Assistant Professor of Strategy & Entrepreneurship (Education); Academic Director, Accreditation, Singapore Management University to find out more.

Since Wednesday last week, Auckland and the wider Northland region were warned of heavy rain and winds expected across the North Island.  On Friday night however, as severe thunderstorms struck Auckland, residents were not sent severe weather alerts until after the worst part of the storm had already arrived. Many Aucklanders have called out the slow response system, in an effort yet again to revitalise discussions around Auckland's storm and natural disaster preparedness. As well, Auckland's public transport system is under the microscope this month as Aucklanders endure just over a fortnight without train services, as workers seek to speed up the completion of Kiwi Rail. Yesterday, Transport Minister Chris Bishop also announced a multi-billion dollar project for a Northland Expressway that he says will improve public transport.  In the meantime, public transport prices have increased — for ratepayers and users —- translating to less bang and more buck for Aucklanders.  Producer Sara spoke with Councillor Julie Fairey about both of these topics, firstly by asking if she was satisfied with Auckland Council's response pace in the lead up to severe weather conditions.

Should we introduce fines for people who conduct loud conversations on public transport?In France, a man was recently fined €200 for using his speakerphone on a train station concourse…Joining Andrea to discuss is Gina London, Communications Expert and Sunday Independent Columnist as well as listeners.

Sexual harassment and assault is a big problem on Japan's huge public transport system. One in 10 women aged 16 to 29 say they have been touched inappropriately on trains, according to the government's first survey on the issue. But the actual number is likely to be much higher, as many women fear the consequences of reporting incidents to police. About 800 people are arrested for groping – known as "chikan" – in Tokyo every year. But many perpetrators get away with their crimes. In response, the police have launched an app to help them deal with the problem.
