1. Prague Integrated Transport (PID)

2.  Prague - area 496 km 2 population 1.2 mil. distance of the city boundary from the centre is 10 km to the north, 18 km to the east, 14 km to the west and 15 km to the south  Prague transport region – in addition to Prague this region includes a part of the Central Bohemian Region surrounding the city, particularly the entire area of districts Prague- East and Prague-West and parts of adjacent districts - the boundary is defined by an area reaching 30-40 km from the centre - population outside Prague - approx. 0.5 mil. Characteristics of the metropolitan area (PID area of interest) EMTA Conference Prague 24th – 25th May 2012

3. Characteristics of public transport network within PID system EMTA Conference Prague 24th – 25th May 2012

4.  Uniform regional transport system based on a preference of backbone rail transport (railway, metro and trams), bus transport is organized particularly as a follow-up transport to terminals established next to rail transport stops and stations, including also P+R facilities  Uniform transfer tariff system enabling to travel with all necessary changes using one ticket only Basic principles, targets and objectives of Prague integrated transport: 1 Tariff, 1 Ticket, 1 Timetable, 1 Network EMTA Conference Prague 24th – 25th May 2012

7. Prague backbone network  metro > backbone railway system for extra-large passenger corridors  suburban railway > more trains, more stops in Prague, higher attractivity for Prague citizens (faster connection from suburbs than by bus)  trams > network optimization: less lines, shorter intervals > combination of backbone tram lines with double-lines with common main part of route  buses > network optimization: less lines, shorter intervals, new tangential connections  backbone bus lines (metrobuses)  complementary bus lines  low capacity minibuses for operation within city quarters  ferries and funicular > complement of basic transport network - simplicity - attractivity - efficiency EMTA Conference Prague 24th – 25th May 2012

9. Tariff is defined in terms of time, zones and the opportunity to change. PID has circular zones. - The area of the City of Prague consists of 4 tariff zones - External zones are numbered from 1 to 5. Basic types of tickets:  single transfer tickets for 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9 zones (paper), valid for 15, 30, 60, 90,120, 150, 180, 210, 240 minutes  short-term season tickets for 24 hours or 3 days (paper)  long-term season tickets for 1, 3, 5, 12 months (smart card) Passengers with single tickets validate their tickets in validating machines located on vehicles (3-5 machines depending on the type of the vehicle), at entrances to metro or on railway stations platforms.

14. The system has been established as a municipal transport association with ROPID placing orders with transport operators for transport services on behalf of subsidy providers. Services are ordered from operators based on contracts prepared by ROPID Customers ROPID Transport operators (17) - City of Prague - suburban municipalities - regional authority PID system organization EMTA Conference Prague 24th – 25th May 2012
