Decision:
Members considered a report published in response to a motion at Full Council on 29 June 2006, concerning the partnership agreement between City of York Council and First York with regard to the ftr.
Members expressed concern about the difficulties with purchasing tickets for the ftr which had been highly publicised, and the negative impact that would have had on the level of use.
It was noted that First York expected to see radical improvement in that area with the introduction of on street ticketing machines allowing passengers to purchase tickets using cash, together with a wider range of tickets tailored to suit individual needs. First were also committed to introducing a mobile phone ‘M’ barcode ticket which would be heavily promoted amongst the student community.
RESOLVED: That the explanations detailed within the report be noted.
REASON: In line with constitutional requirements to report back from Council.
