Azerbaijan buys new passenger trains 13 December 2019 16:40 (UTC+04:00) -Azerbaijan Economy Overview

Switzerland’s Stadler sells FLIRT trains to Azerbaijan for 115 million euros

By Abdul Kerimkhanov

Azerbaijan has purchased two new two-storey passenger trains from Switzerland's Stadler Rail Group company and the trains have already been delivered to Baku, the spokesperson for Azerbaijan Railways CJSC Natavan Bayramova has told local media.

She said the new trains will operate in the direction of Baku-Sumgayit and Baku-Pirshagi. The commissioning of one of the trains is expected in late December 2019, the second - in early January 2020.

The trains have been produced in accordance with the latest technologies and fully meet all modern standards.

Bayramova noted that the new trains have 371 seats, of which 307 are standard seats 62 - business class and nine are first class seats. The reason for the acquisition of new trains is the increase in passenger traffic. The number of Stadler’s trains will increase to nine in the future.

Azerbaijan has signed an agreement to buy six more FLIRT single-storey trains from Stadler. These trains will also be delivered to Baku within the next three years.

Moreover, 10 more trains belonging to the Swiss Stadler will be brought to Baku by 2020 on the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars route.

Azerbaijan Railways received 20 carriages for passenger transportation on the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars railway, 10 of which are already in Baku.

Stadler builds trains which are tailored to meet the needs of customers. The company’s trains are reliable and safe, with optimum comfort for the passengers' travels.

Azerbaijan Railways has been cooperating with Swiss Stadler Rail Group since 2015. The Stadler Rail Group focuses on regional and suburban traffic, light S-rail traffic, the tram and rack railway sectors.

A passenger train of 10 wagons intended for operation on the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars railway, which is intended to transport one million passengers and 6.5 million tons of freight at the first stage, arrived in Baku on March 29.

The train includes nine passenger cars and a dining car. The train is designed to carry 246 people in one direction and is able to run at a speed of 160 km/h.

Railway departments of Azerbaijan, Georgia and Turkey have to make decisions on the days of the week and hours of movement of the trains and on the tickets prices.

The Baku-Tbilisi-Kars railway was commissioned on October 30, 2017. Currently, this route carries freight. At the initial stage, BTK is expected to carry up to one million passengers.

ADY will have a state-of-the-art vehicle thanks to the five-car trains from the FLIRT family,” Sales Ansgar Brockmeyer, Stadler’s head of sales said in a statement, adding that the FLIRTs will be designed to meet the Russian GOST requirements which are in place in the country.

“The order from the Caspian Sea underlines once again how Stadler can respond to individual customer needs – and demonstrates the versatility of the FLIRT,” the company added.

According to the agreement, ten five-car FLIRT trains will be supplied to ADY for 115 million euros, including four interregional trains that will be configured as interregional trains with diesel-electric propulsion and six electrically-driven trains, with three of them designed for interregional traffic while the remaining three will be used as regional trains for suburban transport.

AZERBAIJAN OVERVIEW BY WORLD BANK

Azerbaijan’s economy grew by 2.2 percent in 2019, its best performance since 2014. On the supply side, the hydrocarbon sector stagnated, as surging natural gas output, up by 27.7 percent year on year, was offset by a 3.3 percent decline in oil production.
At the same time, non-energy GDP grew at a solid 3.5 percent, with agriculture and services driving the expansion. On the demand side, investment remained anemic while rising real incomes, as a result of higher government spending, supported consumption.
Azerbaijan's official national poverty rate is low, standing at 5.1 percent in 2018. Given the recent increase in private consumption, the poverty rate is estimated to have fallen further in 2019.
Inflation remained low in 2019 and early 2020, with annual consumer prices edging up to 2.8 percent year on year in February 2020. With inflation within the Central Bank of Azerbaijan's (CBA) target range of 4.2 percent, the CBA continued to lower the policy rate throughout 2019 and early 2020, cutting it to 7.25 percent.

The surpluses on Azerbaijan's external accounts narrowed in 2019. Flat exports and an acceleration in imports reduced the goods trade surplus to 12 percent of GDP in 2019 (from 17 percent in 2018). Similarly, the current account surplus eased to 12 percent of GDP in the first three quarters of 2019.

Malaysia Rail Industry Contribution -Do it Right For High Speed Rail (HSR) Malaysia

DO IT RIGHT FOR ECONOMY - STAY SAFE

Underground LRT Kuala Lumpur

LRT Ampang KJ9 -Future Connectivity with Putrajaya Line

Economic growth must have environmentally sustainability (OECD). Use public transport regularly for better future. The more rail connectivity build up the better economic growth. Government through Agensi Pengangkutan Darat (APAD) and Ministry of Transport (MOT) have target must be achieved as stated in NKRA by 40%. By having more rail system develope, the target is become more realistic.

Monday, 9 October 2017

APAD MEDIA STATEMENT

GOVERNMENT’S INITIATIVE ON PUBLIC TRANSPORT RESULTS IN INCREASED RIDERSHIP

6 October 2017: Since 2010, the Government invested heavily in improving public transport infrastructure under the Urban Public Transport (UPT) NKRA. The modal share of public transportation within the Greater KL/Klang Valley in 2010, was only at 10%. Guided by the National Land Public Transport Master Plan (NLPTMP) established in 2013, we have set ambitious goals to achieve a modal share target of 40% for land public transport in urban areas by 2030. With concerted effort, in 2015, the modal share had grown to 20%, marking a significant progress.

In 2015, an urban rail fare review exercise was undertaken as it had not been reviewed over the past 19 years. The immediate impact was a decline of 9% in ridership in 2016, however this normalised with a significant pick up of 12% in ridership in 2017 i.e from 570,021 to 638,605. This numbers does not include the MRT Line ridership. The full opening of the MRT Line 1 alone, recorded a daily ridership of 101,024.

Daily Ridership for Urban Rail on upward Trend: 2016 vs 2017 (Pax/Daily)

The LRT Kelana Jaya Line led the growth, with an increase of 26% or 271,250 daily ridership for the said period in 2017 compared to 215,855 in 2016.

Adding to this growth was the LRT Ampang Line which recorded an increase of 14% which translated to 184,931 daily ridership in 2017.

The KTM Komuter services has suffered a dip in ridership in 2017 due to the Klang Valley Double Track (KVDT) rehabilitation project, which saw the frequency impacted. This reduced the average daily ridership by 5% to 103,074 in 2017 compared to 108,023 in 2016. However, we expect ridership to stabilize and pick-up once the KVDT rehabilitation work which covers the upgrading of track and signaling systems is completed in 2019 to modernize the 42km KTM Komuter network.

In the case of the KL Monorail ridership, the numbers have also hit a downtrend in 2017 with a reduction of 11% compared to 2016 bringing ridership to 53,337 due to the removal of the 5 four- car Monorail train sets due to safety concerns which resulted in reduced frequency. Prasarana is taking the necessary actions to resolve this technical issue in stages.

KL Monorail 4 Coach

Commuting via public transport today has also become relatively cheaper than owning a car, especially if one factors the cost of ownership, insurance, road tax, maintenance and related expenses including parking, fuel, toll and not to mention unproductive hours spent in traffic. For example, a commuter can take an MRT Feeder bus to the Sg Buloh station for RM1 and take the MRT to Pasar Seni for RM3.70 and switch to an LRT ride to KLCC for RM2.10, at an affordable RM6.80, one way. This does not take into account the further reduction on Touch ‘n Go and 50% concession rates enjoyed by students, senior citizens and the disabled.

The Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI) an independent survey carried out by SPAD indicated that 84% of respondents are satisfied with the urban public transport in 2016, an increase of 10% from 2015. These findings reflect the Government is on the right track in planning and implementation of initiatives under the National Land Public Transport Master Plan. To continue to attract more ridership by making transit more seamless, SPAD will soon launch the Journey Planner in quarter 4, 2017 and implement the integrated ticketing system by 2019.
