3 Tram Passenger Survey (TPS) Context to the survey

4 Background to the 7 survey The Tram Passenger Survey (TPS) The TPS provides a consistent, robust measurement of passenger satisfaction with tram services in Britain It also informs our understanding of barriers to (greater) tram use, how to encourage greater use, and how to improve the passenger experience Comparisons can also be made with passenger experiences on buses and trains, as measured by the Bus Passenger Survey (BPS) and National Rail Passenger Survey (NRPS) The 7 TPS covered tram services in Manchester, Birmingham, Blackpool, Nottingham, and Glasgow*. Edinburgh Trams was covered in -. The survey method Passengers are approached while making a journey; they answer the survey about that journey specifically The questionnaire is self-completion, with passengers offered a choice of online or paper Interviewers approached passengers on all days of the week between am and pm, between 8 September and 8 December 7 surveys were completed for Supertram in autumn 7 For further details of the survey method, see Appendix *Glasgow Subway was included for the first time in 7. Due to the difference of this Subway network compared to tram networks it is excluded from this report, as well as any All Networks results, and can be found in a separate report.

9 What makes a satisfactory or great journey on Supertram? The top factors linked to overall journey satisfaction* What makes a satisfactory journey? What makes a great journey? % % % % Cleanliness and condition of the tram Tram stop condition Boarding the tram *Key Driver Analysis looks at fare-paying passengers overall journey satisfaction response and their response to the individual satisfaction measures in the survey (including value for money), which have been grouped into themes based upon a statistical analysis of the responses. The left hand chart shows which themes most differentiate between those not satisfied and satisfied overall making a journey satisfactory. The right hand chart shows which themes most differentiate between those fairly and very satisfied overall making a great journey. The analysis combines data from and 7 surveys to increase robustness. It also excludes satisfaction measures relating to tram staff; due to differences in staff availability across the networks not all TPS questionnaires feature questions about tram staff. In order to run the analysis in a consistent and practical manner all staff measures have been excluded. See appendix for a full explanation of the analysis to identify factors linked to overall journey satisfaction. 9

10 Passenger experience in 7: across the network Satisfaction with key measures: All Networks Blue/Purple route Yellow route Overall journey Value for Money Punctuality Overall stop Satisfaction with other measures which make a satisfactory journey: Length of time waiting for the tram Satisfaction with other measures which make a great journey: Space to sit/ stand on board Comfort of the seats Amount of personal space on board Provision of grab rails Temperature on board

12 Summary of key findings () In the 7 wave of the Tram Passenger Survey 9 per cent of Supertram passengers are satisfied with their journey overall. This is a significant increase compared to (9 per cent). Two thirds of passengers ( per cent) are very satisfied with their journey overall Overall journey satisfaction is higher than the same measure on the Bus Passengers Survey for bus services in South Yorkshire (87 per cent satisfied) Overall satisfaction is quite consistent across different passenger groups. There have been significant increases in satisfaction amongst male passengers, those aged -, commuters and fare payers The key factor which makes journeys satisfactory on Supertram is the timeliness of trams. Satisfaction with punctuality and the length of time waiting for the tram have remained consistent with last year. Satisfaction with punctuality remains the same as (8 per cent satisfied); satisfaction with wait time edges upwards from 8 per cent in to 8 per cent The key factor which makes journeys great on Supertram is the on board environment and comfort. Satisfaction is generally high for aspects linked to this, in particular the comfort of the seats and provision of grab rails 88 per cent are satisfied with both aspects of the on board experience. The lowest rated aspect is the amount of personal space on board, which has increased significantly this year from 7 per cent to 8 per cent Amongst fare-paying passengers, 7 per cent are satisfied with value for money. This is an upwards movement from 7 per cent in. Those aged - are less satisfied with value for money (7 per cent) When evaluating value for money, the most important factors are the cost of the tram versus other modes of transport and the cost for the distance travelled

13 Summary of key findings () When comparing the two lines in (Blue/Purple and Yellow) overall satisfaction is marginally higher on the Yellow line: 9 per cent compared to 9 per cent on the Blue/Purple line. Passengers are considerably more satisfied with punctuality on the Yellow line (8 per cent compared to 77 per cent), as well as with many aspects of on board environment and comfort 9 per cent of passengers spontaneously mention an improvement that could have been made to their journey (7 per cent in ). The most common improvement mentioned relates to having real time information and updates at the tram stop Other improvements relate to punctuality of the tram and the design, comfort and condition of the vehicles per cent of passengers experienced a delay on their journey (: per cent). When delays occurred they lasted 8 minutes on average Just less than half of all passengers (8 per cent) are using Supertram to commute. 8 per cent are travelling for work; per cent for education Two thirds of passengers ( per cent) purchase their ticket from a conductor. There is a relatively even split between paper tickets ( per cent) and tickets on a plastic card (9 per cent). Only per cent use an m-ticket, although this is significantly higher than ( per cent)

38 Tram Passenger Survey (TPS) Passengers suggested improvements 8

39 Passengers suggested improvements: summary 7% of passengers in 7 had no suggestions for improvements of the 9% that did, the most common service areas for improvement were: Real time info./updates at stop Punctuality Tram: Design/comfort/condition Fares/tickets Frequency/routes Tram staff Seating and capacity Information about routes Tram stop Passenger behaviour Cleanliness of the tram Journey times On-board amenities (Wi-Fi, tea/coffee etc.) Comment about another journey Real time info./updates via online sources Other Q. If something could have been improved on your tram journey today, what would it have been? Base: All suggesting an improvement - 9 9

40 Passengers suggested improvements: the detail Selected verbatim comments More frequent trams in peak times. Markings on floor to indicate which side to enter or exit like they have in Tokyo/Taipei. Regulate temperature on board. Adhere to timetables. Accept card payments on board. Staff to kick idiots off the tram straight away (i.e. people being loud/rude to other passengers/staff/drunk people). Faster responses from the customer care team when you contact them. Clearer labelling for destination of tram. Mandatory tannoy indicating next stop. Payments via card (cash is inconvenient in 7). Tram stops electronic board to show the next stop. More seats. Better punctuality. Electronic displays at tram stops aren't accurate enough when trams are delayed. We were on one of the older trams and its interior and seats are worn and grubby looking and the seats are very uncomfortable. More tram service during rush hour, it's getting crowded quickly, no live information at Meadowhall Station, often waiting - not knowing when the tram turn up. Live eta board - present and correct! (First bus app does this) Same for a mobile app. Drivers waiting/ or people running to door. (Check their mirrors!). Roaming security (with power to do things), not just a pointless ticket checker. Improve the cleanliness of the tram and some new seats.. The three chairs in front of the wheelchairs parking are not comfortable and better be like the other normal chairs on the trams.. Nice, kind and smiley staff Not overcrowding the tram - put another tram on at rush hour. Eject from the tram disruptive loud passengers. Conductors need to be more firm! Rush hour trams in either direction do not run to the timetable which is frustrating. In the evening it is not unusual to have to swap trams at Hackenthorpe. The electronic displays are not accurate. The West Street stop is poor when waiting for trams going to Halfway or Meadowhall. There is no shelter when it is raining.

61 Tram Passenger Survey (TPS) Appendix Further details on survey background and method

62 Methodology fieldwork Nottingham Express Transit (TPS) Fieldwork: 8 September to 8 December 7 (with a gap for half term from October to November) Interviewer shifts: covered all days of the week and ran from am to pm. Each interviewer worked a three-hour shift. Method: Choice of paper or online self-completion questionnaire Sample size: interviews (9 paper and online) In fieldwork took place between September to December Bus (BPS) data for South Yorkshire Fieldwork: September to 7 December 7 Interviewer shifts: covered all days of the week and ran from am to pm. Each interviewer worked a three-hour shift Method: Choice of paper or online self-completion questionnaire Sample size: 8 interviews

63 Methodology data analysis Base definitions: All charts are based on those who gave an answer to an individual question. Those who either left the question blank or said don t know have been excluded from the base. For this reason the base sizes for those charts based on All passengers vary slightly between the different charts in this report. Significant changes are shown at the 9% confidence level. / / symbols are used throughout this report to indicate positive or negative significant changes. Weighting: this was based on passenger count information collected by the interviewer during each interviewer shift. The weighting matrix used the following weighting cells: Tram network: (for Manchester Metrolink, Nottingham Express Transit and Supertram this was by line) Age: -, -9, + Gender: male, female Time/day travelled: weekday peak, weekday off peak and weekend The full details of the weighting matrix can be found in the TPS 7 technical report.

64 Methodology themes that are affecting overall passenger satisfaction charts () The approach to identifying themes that affect overall passenger satisfaction is split into two stages. At the first stage, we took all individual satisfaction measures from the survey (apart from the overall journey satisfaction) and formed them into themes using a statistical technique known as factor analysis, which groups together those satisfaction measures that are responded to similarly within the data. For instance, where high or low scores are given for measure x, there tends to be a similar rating for measures y and z, so the factor or theme becomes A. Through this process we identified ten themes, which are shown below, alongside measures that formed each theme: Theme (factor) Questions On tram environment and comfort Sufficient room for all the passengers to sit/stand The comfort of the seats The amount of personal space you had around you Provision of grab rails to hold on to when standing/moving about the tram The temperature inside the tram Tram stop condition Its general condition/standard of maintenance Its freedom from graffiti/vandalism Its freedom from litter Boarding the tram The ease of getting on to and off of the tram The length of time it took to board the tram Timeliness The length of time you had to wait for the tram The punctuality of the tram Access to the tram stop Its distance from your journey start e.g. home, shops The convenience/accessibility of its location Personal safety throughout journey Behaviour of fellow passengers waiting at the stop Your personal safety whilst at the tram stop Your personal security whilst on the tram 7 Cleanliness and condition of the tram The cleanliness and condition of the outside of the tram The cleanliness and condition of the inside of the tram 8 Smoothness/speed of tram The amount of time the journey took Smoothness/freedom from jolting during the journey 9 Information throughout journey The information provided at the tram stop Route/destination information on the outside of the tram The information provided inside the tram Value for money How satisfied were you with the value for money of your tram journey?

65 Methodology themes that are affecting overall passenger satisfaction charts () For the second stage, these themes were then used to identify how much effect each one has on passengers rating for overall journey satisfaction, by means of a key driver analysis. The square diagrams show the proportional influence that each theme has on satisfaction for that area/operator. They should be read like a pie chart where the slices or portions are relative to each other and together add up to %. So in the example below, the theme of on tram environment and comfort which is shaded red, has the greatest influence on satisfaction, followed by smoothness/speed of tram, while themes such as boarding the tram and information throughout journey have relatively less influence here. This analysis was conducted on fare-paying passengers only, so that the influence of value for money could be included. It also combines data from and 7 surveys to increase robustness. The analysis excludes satisfaction measures relating to tram staff; due to differences in staff availability across the networks not all TPS questionnaires feature questions about tram staff. In order to run the analysis in a consistent and practical manner all staff measures have been excluded. There are noticeable and interesting differences in the impact of different themes between the various tram networks. The process used for Glasgow differs slightly, in that only out of individual satisfaction measures are included in the Glasgow questionnaire. The first stage of the analysis was therefore conducted in isolation from the other networks and produces slightly different themes. A full description is included in the technical report.
