Delegated transportation market
A rapidly-expanding market. The complexity of travel patterns in fast-changing environments, passenger expectations for increasingly individualized services and information and a desire to run an extremely efficient operation frequently lead transit authorities to contract out transportation services to established professionals.
A long-term partnership
Transit authorities structure the delegation of services around precise specifications, and grant contracts for a fixed period following a competitive bidding process.
The transit authorities define transportation policy and maintain control over services provided and, in most cases, the fares charged to passengers.
