Who are our clients?


“The Knowledge Transfer Partnership with the University of Southampton has made a significant contribution to our success.”

Alan Willson


“In these uncertain economic times, all

ground transportation operators need to be

constantly reviewing their working methods

and costs with a view to making prudent

economies without adversely affecting the

customer experience.”

The issue


A new approach

“The new approach, using Logical Transport's LT

Enterprise system, is set to achieve substantial savings

by combining Demand Responsive Transit (DRT)

technologies together with a wide range of passenger

communication options including web technologies,

passenger kiosks, SMS text, GPRS and RTI (Real Time

Information) to provide passengers with a safe, secure

transport network that is responsive to their needs.


Heathrow HoppaA Case Study


70 million passengers

annually

New Terminal 5

Activity modelling through

LT ‘Decision’ moduleSimulations highlighted the following could be attained:

A significant reduction in miles driven to meet agreed SLA’s

Service standards improved through improved routing

Reduction in fuel, maintenance costs and drivers hours

Reduction in carbon footprint

Improved audit trail and reporting


LT Enterprise delivers a fixed timetable/fixed schedule

service during peak times which see over half of passenger

movements by 09:30 with more flexible ‘virtual’ scheduling

during off-peak hours.Booking is simplified, through electronic kiosks located in hotel lobby’s, online or directly from the driver.

The system then calculates the optimum schedule against defined business rules with drivers manifest update in ‘real-time’ through onboard MDT’s.


“The result is a service that is flexible to not only meet but exceed SLA’s and passenger expectation;

making Heathrow ‘Hoppa’ the most convenient way to travel from your hotel to Heathrow

Airport.”

The system also has the ability to

generate:

Bar-coded ticketing

Ticketing to mobile phones

Real-time running information

‘Vehicle approaching’ alerts to

mobile phones and fixed displays.


Carbon Footprint & Management Information

With all journeys and schedules logged, carbon footprint and management information is readily available including:

Number of passengers carried and journey start/finish point matrixTicket revenueCarbon emissions (and savings achieved versus conventional routing strategies)Performance standards for punctuality, journey time compliance etc


Better Parking Lot Shuttle Management

Short-listed proposal for London Stansted Airport

The largest surface parking lot in Europe with 18,000

spaces

24/7/365 SLA with 5-15 minute headway

Proposal aims to cut wasted journeys in off-peak times

‘PC in a bus-stop’ with touch sensitive screen; press to

call shuttle

Improved customer experience through live running

information

Better customer engagement, opportunity for advertising

Significant savings in operating, staff and carbon

footprint predicted


Reduced fuel costs

Reduction in wear and tear on

vehicles

Reduced carbon footprint

Enhanced revenue & improved

margins for operators

Better customer information

Enhanced management

information

No more parking lot tours!

Benefits of the new approachThis more ‘holistic’

approach delivers high

service standards

during peak time and

improved customer

service in off-peak

whilst reducing

operating overheads

and environmental

impact.
