The report presents the findings of a review and appraisal undertaken by the Oxford University Transport Studies Unit (TSU) for CENTRO (formerly the West Midlands Passenger Transport Executive) to identify applications of these new information technologies on public transport services and to discuss their potential in the West Midlands area. The objectives are: (1) To conduct a selective review of literature on public transport informatics technologies which have been implemented in World cities; (2) To conduct case study visits to appraise the most promising systems in more detail; (3) To contact RTI equipment manufacturers in selected cities to discuss their view of the PTI market; and (4) To appraise the Centro public transport database in the light of the review, the case study visits and current Centro policy objectives regarding information.
