D5 Annex WP 7: ETIS DATABASE METHODOLOGY AND DATABASE USER MANUAL – PASSENGER TRANSPORT SUPPLY Figure 4.8 Overview of data for rail tariffs applied for qualified longdistance services in different countries € Supply segment: Qualified longdistance (Demand segment: business) 200 180 160 140 AT BE CH CZ DE DK ES FI FR GR HU IT NL RO SE SK PL UK 120 100 80 60 40 20 0 0 km 100 200 300 400 500 600 700 800 900 1000 A further improvement of the approach could be attained by taking into account further countryspecific characteristics, e.g. in terms of share of usage of seasonal tickets like HalbtaxAbo in Switzerland or BahnCard in Germany or in terms of share of business and private travelers using first wagon class for their trips. IVT will check whether data from DATELINE can be used for a finer characterisation of demand segments. With an increasing importance of yieldmanagement systems for tarification of longdistance rail services, the data situation for costs may become comparable to the situation for the air mode. Therefore the Commission is advised by ETIS to implement a directive, which obliges longdistance rail operators to publish all relevant ticket information for a 10% sample of all ticket sold. Where possible, the data will be generated for the travel purposes business and nonbusiness. 32 R20040089.doc 27 May 2004
D5 Annex WP 7: ETIS DATABASE METHODOLOGY AND DATABASE USER MANUAL – PASSENGER TRANSPORT SUPPLY 4.3.6 Passenger travel time and direct costs shortsea shipping LOS and cost data for shortsea shipping links have been retrieved by the consultation of various sources. Following two publications have been the basis: · “Fähren in Europa” – ferries in Europe · DB Kursbuch Europa – European timetable, published by German Rail (DB AG) While the first reference contains information on frequencies, travel times and tariffs, the latter contains only information on frequencies and travel times. Where necessary and possible, missing information has been completed by data on the Internet site of ferry companies. The Internet sites consulted for extracting further information are listed in section 4.2.1. As regards the scope of the data collection following data have been collected per ferry link: number of connections, travel time, tariff per person, passenger car, camper/ trailer and, where applicable and available, tariff per cabin. For the calculation of the direct travel costs on a ferry link the considered tariff embraces the carriage of a passenger car and two persons. Several ferry links are operated by several operators, or by the same operator with different types of ferries. For such links the reference LOS and tariff data have been estimated by an average value, weighted by the number of connections the particular operators provide. The cost and LOS data for shortsea shipping have been being raised at country level, not at O/D level. The printed timetables mentioned above provide information for 304 ferry links in Europe; some ferry links are operated by several companies – thus the number of services taken into account is slightly higher (388). 181 out of the 304 ferry links could be allocated to ferry links in the GISCO road network of the year 2000. However, especially ferry services to Greek islands and other ferry services in the Aegean Sea are missing in the two data sources mentioned above. The retrieval of data for ferry links within Greek and from other countries to Greek islands as well as for further links in the Aegean Sea has been the most important task within the last weeks with respect to passenger ferry levelofservice data. The Internet has proven as the most important medium for the investigation of data for tariffs and the levelofservice for ferry connections on the Aegean Sea (see also list of Internet links in section 4.2.1). The ferry links of the GISCO road network, for which levelofservice and costs data have been made available (152), are pictured on the following map (Figure 4.9). R20040089.doc 27 May 2004 33
