ALLRAIL have issued a statement calling the Transmodel NeTEX the "tried and tested" technical standard for door-to-door bookings.
ALLRAIL issued this statement:
The current fragmentation of ground public transport ticketing must end, if it is to compete effectively versus aviation and the car. At present, there are a myriad of ground public transport connections not available in one booking.
Therefore, it must be possible to merge first-and-last-mile transport with long-distance rail into one booking - under one single technical standard - with secure passenger rights covering the entire door-to-door journey.
The technical standard Transmodel NeTEx can handle all multi-modality as well as dynamic (‘yield managed’) fares. It has been developed in a neutral and independent manner - with full transparency at its core.
Transmodel NeTEx will solve the problem, meaning huge new revenue potential for both rail and first-and-last-mile operators – a Win-Win for All. It has already been successfully implemented across all ground transport in an entire country – Norway – and now we call for it to now be recognised and implemented across the entire European single market and beyond.
