The TRAVEL 2020 Vision... |

Travel 2020 is the leading discussion forum of the future of passenger travel, and how new technologies and customer service approaches are changing the face of passenger transport.
We believe that all elements of the new generation of mobility planning and management deserve their own platform, so decision-makers can see the available technologies, and discuss their implementation.
The industry is in real danger of not fully embracing the seismic shifts that are currently taking place in the way technology is mediating the relationship between the customers and the service providers in public transport. It is not overstating the case to say that these changes may potentially wipe out, or at least emasculate, the established business model pursued by the UK bus and train operators. In essence, being 'operator' is just not enough any more. Total mobility is the need to address - and technology is making it perfectly possible.
There is a revolution taking place in the way in which transport services are provided, customers make their travel decisions and how they purchase their journeys.
Travel 2020 was founded to facilitate important new partnerships and business relationships in this exciting developing marketplace.

Norman Baker delivered the keynote address at Travel 2020 in 2010, and returns this year to headline the morning plenary.
By 2020 I'd like to see seamless travel on one ticket throughout the country.
- A single smartcard ticket that you can use whether you are in Bristol on the bus, on the Tube in London or on the Metro in Newcastle.
- A single smartcard that lets you hire a bike or join a car club.
- A single smartcard that can be topped up in shops, online or by phone.
- A single smartcard that makes travel easier and cheaper.
With smart and integrated ticketing, we have an opportunity to give passengers greater certainty over their end to end journey, and as a result increase the take up of more sustainable forms of travel.
