16 Key numbers for Wiener Linien in 2008

17 The public fast connections grid of Vienna in 2008

18 Planned extension of the public transportation grid Wiener Linien is set to invest almost EUR 1.8 billion by 2013 alone. Of this amount, around EUR 1.4 billion has been earmarked for new underground line construction, around EUR 257 million for trams, around EUR 73 million for buses and almost EUR 60 million for underground trains.

21 Result in 2008: 35 % public transport at an increased number of passenger

23 Findings of customers surveys The share of satisfied responses is then entered on to a scale from -100 to Therefore, +100 means total satisfaction with the characteristic in question; an index rating of zero would indicate 50% satisfaction; and a rating of -100 would indicate total dissatisfaction with the relevant characteristic. The value for 2007 for the example means of transport is in fact +60, as seen in the graph, which equates to a share of satisfied people of 80%.

24 Attractive components of the mobility offer User-friendly touch screen ticket machines located in underground stations, allowing customers to purchase parking tickets for Vienna's limited parking zones at any ticket machine in any underground station. In order to make it easier for wheelchair-bound customers to purchase tickets, every machine near a lift has been mounted lower to the ground to improve accessibility. Special price tickets for students and seniors. Introduction of electronic sales channels m-ticketing (purchasing tickets via your mobile phone) and the online ticket shop. Fitting of the new buses, underground trains and ULF trams with temperature reduction units and dehumidifiers to create a pleasant climate.

25 BEST Annual benchmarking study on customer satisfaction in seven European metropoles (Stockholm, Oslo, Helsinki, Copenhagen, Vienna, Geneva, Berlin) Telephone interviews with 1000 customers and noncustomers in and around Vienna Response rate: 46% Single choice, scaling Analyzed objects: Citizen Satisfaction Traffic supply Reliability Information Staff behaviour Security and safety Comfort Value for money Social Image Loyalty

29 Measures to improve customer satisfaction Setting up and implementing the cleanliness procedure throughout Wiener Linien, Pursuance of video surveillance Gathering performance evidence for peak times during EURO 2008, Awareness management, e. g. internal poster campaign (placards, bills and notices), Further removing barriers for people with special needs Information offensive.

30 Pursuance of video surveillance Measures set in our sustainability programme

31 EURO 2008 the highlight of 2008 More than 7.3 million passengers than usual within the 23-day competition More than 60% of fans made use of the underground to travel to the stadium. 200,000 additional journeys on each day without matches 500,000 additional journeys on match days, and culminating in around 800,000 for two top matches. The number of rides on offer on the underground lines throughout the entire event was 25% higher during the day and 50% higher in the evening. On match days, the number of rides on offer increased by up to 100% over regular operating levels between 5 pm and close.

32 Removing barriers for people with special needs In 2007: every underground station and 66% of underground tram stations were fitted with lifts or permanent ramps, with 98% of lifts and 97% of escalators being available. 97% (2006: 96%) of tram stops and 95% (2006: 94%) of bus stops were fitted with platform edges At the end of 2008, the proportion of trams which were ultra low floor vehicles was 36.2% (tramcars, 2007: 32%). In 2008, a further 23 ultra low floor (ULF) trams were delivered. A further 14 type B1 ULF trams are due for delivery in Additional new generation vehicles are then set to follow at an annual rate of 15 to 20 units.

33 Information offensive e.g. offering more and improved electronic, individual information by Expanding the electronic passenger information automated operations control system (RBL), Orchestrating a more user-friendly Internet presence by, for example, integrating timetable information into the home page of Wiener Linien to make it easier to use for visually impaired users, A separate website for young people with attractive offers and relevant information (
