The ITF "Fare’s Fair" report presents case studies illustrating how fare policies can influence access to public transport and discusses the distributive effects of different fare policies and ticketing technologies. The report provides insights to support decision-makers in developing and implementing more effective and fair fare policies.
The UITP "Keeping it Fare" Policy Brief highlights the need for awareness of affordability, how to measure it, various approaches for deploying fare affordability schemes, and provides recommendations. It seeks to balance cost increases and revenue uncertainty from the operators’ and authorities’ perspectives, ensuring the financial health of the sector and increasing its customer base.
Find out how strategic fare policies can help improve access to opportunities, increase ridership, and ensure public transport systems meet evolving travel needs.
