Summary

Machine-generated summary

Ireland's transport authorities are seeking a supplier, via a pre-qualification questionnaire, to carry out fare evasion surveys across contracted public transport services. Around 15,500 individual passenger surveys will be completed per quarter, covering Dublin metropolitan and outer bus services, orbital and commuter routes, regional, city, town and rural services, Waterford city buses, East Coast Commuter, DART and commuter rail, and intercity and regional rail operated by Dublin Bus, Go Ahead Ireland, Bus Eireann, other operators and Irish Rail. Each survey must measure fare evasion rates, ticket type usage, passenger types, fares paid, timescales, route details, and boarding and alighting points. Surveys run quarterly in four-week periods across thirteen timeframe strata.
