26 Final remarks: priorities for Central and Eastern Europe Central government - revision of National Legislation on urban/regional transport - stay out of fares policy (as long as you don t pay the bill) - support a framework for urban transport Local government - good transport doesn t come for free - introduce a fair, transparent and sustainable model for service payments - don t interfere with daily business management - long term vision and strategy on PT needed Transport Companies - change from product-oriented to client-oriented - think as a Company, act as a Company - project management cost money - learn from your colleagues
