Executive summary

The NSW Government’s vision is for an integrated public transport system that drives better outcomes for all customers. Under our NSW 2021 plan, Transport for NSW is tasked with putting the customer at the centre of our decision making to boost customer satisfaction with public transport.

The Customer Satisfaction Index 2013 brings together the voices of over 35,000 customers, and demonstrates current satisfaction levels across all public transport.

By publishing these results, we are making operators and ourselves accountable for our decisions and driving continual improvement across the transport network.

We will keep talking with customers about what matters to them, be accountable for our performance and in turn drive a better public transport system for all customers.

Customer satisfaction methodology

BackgroundIn November 2012, Transport for NSW conducted a survey to measure satisfaction levels across the NSW public transport system. We repeated this in June 2013. We will continue to survey customers throughout each financial year.

The survey was informed by the Customer Experience Division of Transport for NSW to ensure that it measured the service attributes that customers actually value. The Customer Experience Division used Customer Value Proposition research to determine what drives customer satisfaction levels across the various modes. This information was then used to design the questions in the surveys. The results present what customers value in a hierarchy of importance, outlining the top nine service drivers including timeliness, safety & security and comfort.

The Customer Satisfaction Index 2013 includes responses from over 35,000 customers across five transport modes: train, bus, ferry, light rail and taxi. For train, ferry and light rail, the survey covered the Sydney metropolitan region. However, bus and taxi encompasses not only the Sydney metropolitan area but also outer metropolitan bus regions and other urban centres for taxis.

ScaleThe survey uses a seven-point scale in order to differentiate levels of satisfaction as shown below. The top three ratings together are defined as satisfied and the bottom three ratings together are defined as dissatisfied.

In the November 2012 survey, taxi used slightly dissatisfied and slightly satisfied instead of partly dissatisfied or satisfied.

Survey methodologyThe surveys applied sampling in two stages to better represent the average customer’s opinions. Firstly, services were randomly selected by surveyors to meet quotas and secondly, customers on board those services were randomly selected by surveyors. In order to reduce sampling error, targets were placed on the number of customers to be sampled within each vehicle at 40 for train, bus and light rail and 100 for ferry. These targets were met in most of the circumstances and were exceeded in a couple of cases.

The surveys aim to achieve a margin of error of approximately ±5% with a 95% confidence interval at the bus region, ferry route and train or light rail line level of reporting. Regions of high error have been noted and certain regions of geographical or operational similarity may have been aggregated.

Customer satisfaction methodology

Survey interviewers worked seven hour shifts in pairs to distribute and collect surveys. Shift times include:

• Weekday am 6:30 am – 1:30 pm

• Weekday pm 1:30 pm – 8:30 pm

• Weekend 10:00 am – 5:00 pm

While on board their respective transport modes, customers were asked about their experience of their current trip or most recent experience. Where customers were unable to complete the survey on board, fax and mail back options were provided.

In order to get a result for the overall mode, survey results were weighted for patronage along each line, region or route. The results are then presented for the overall network and the individual operating corridors. For taxi, as patronage data was considered to be commercially sensitive information, no patronage weighting was possible. As a result, the overall results for taxi are based on the average for the surveyed respondents only.

Taxi customers were surveyed regarding their most recent experience by means of an online questionnaire. Customers were recruited via an online panel and emailed invitations to participate in the survey.

EligibilityCustomers were selected to participate in the survey for train, bus, ferry and light rail while travelling on a typical day of a typical week. A typical day includes weekdays and weekends but does not coincide with school holidays, public holidays or special events. Customers include all users of the NSW train, bus, ferry and light rail network, including local residents, interstate customers and overseas visitors.

Customers under 17 years old were excluded from the survey and surveys were not distributed to school children in uniform.*

For the taxi component of the survey, customers were eligible to complete the survey if they had travelled by taxi in the six months prior to the survey and their home postcode was in one of the relevant districts.

*Under 16 year olds were excluded in the November 2012 survey

Initiatives to improve customer satisfaction

At the time of undertaking the two surveys, Transport for NSW had a number of initiatives already underway across train, bus, ferry and light rail to improve customer satisfaction. These initiatives have been designed to target the areas customers care about most and are monitored to ensure they improve the customer satisfaction results as they are rolled out.

TimelinessIn October this year, we introduced a new Customer Timetable. It is the biggest rewrite of the timetable in 25 years and delivers more services, improved connections between different types of public transport and reduced many journey times.

The timetable is also easier for customers to use, with fewer stopping patterns and more consistent service times, particularly in peak periods. Customers closer to the CBD receive frequent, more evenly spaced services, with many stations receiving ‘turn up and go’ services. Customers who travel longer distances from outer suburban areas also have fewer stops and reduced journey times.

Safety & SecurityFrom May 2012, the Police Transport Command started putting police back on public transport. Police provide a visible enforcement presence on trains, buses and ferries. The recruitment process is well underway with 400 due by the end of 2013 and 610 dedicated police officers allocated by the end of 2014.

TicketingIn November 2012, the roll out of the Opal electronic ticketing began. Opal will transform the way public transport customers get from A to B. When fully implemented, Opal will provide seamless connection between transport modes and eliminate the need to queue for a ticket. Since launching the Opal card, more than 28,500 cards have been ordered by customers. More than 90 per cent of customers surveyed to date indicate the Opal card experience has met or exceeded their expectations. By 2015, 40 ferry wharves, more than 300 train stations and more than 5,000 buses and light rail will have Opal equipment operating in Sydney, the Hunter, Central Coast, the Illawarra, Southern Highlands and Blue Mountains

ComfortOver 80 per cent of Sydney’s new Waratah train carriages have been delivered. The roll out of the Waratah trains has resulted in an increase of trains that are air conditioned to 85 percent from 70 per cent in 2010. Once the rollout of all Waratah trains is complete, 95 per cent of trains deployed to the timetable are expected to be air-conditioned.

On 13 February 2012, the first quiet carriage trial commenced on the Newcastle and Central Coast line before being extended to the South Coast and Blue Mountains lines. From 3 July 2013, the quiet carriage fleet doubled from around 109 to 226 carriages giving customers a quiet and peaceful journey on intercity train services.

The Growth Buses program has $55 million allocated for 125 new buses this year that will modernise the fleet by replacing aging buses with new air-conditioned, wheelchair accessible vehicles which are fitted with the latest safety technology.

Initiatives to improve customer satisfaction

Accessibility and ConvenienceMore than 80 per cent of Sydney’s new Waratah train carriages are now available for passenger service. Waratah trains offer improved disability access. Additional handrails, priority seats and more wheelchair spaces - 16 wheelchair spaces per eight carriage train. Wider entrance areas in train vestibule also assist faster boarding and alighting.

In April 2012, the NSW Government announced a new Transport Access Program that brought together six different infrastructure programs to deliver integrated, modern, secure and accessible transport infrastructure where it is needed most as part of a $770 million investment over four years. So far, more than 110 projects have been announced and more than 45 are now open to the public that help provide accessible stations for people with a disability, as well as the ageing and parents with prams.

CleanlinessAs part of the Fixing the Trains program, a specialist cleaning unit to attack graffiti and rubbish on dirty trains and stations was created. On 28 September 2012, Transport Cleaning Services was officially established and commenced work in early 2013 to deliver cleaner trains and stations. Since that time, there has been a declining trend in the number of carriages covered in graffiti. By the end of June 2013, Transport Cleaning Services had completed a seat cleaning and carriage blitz for 1356 carriages.

InformationTransport for NSW partnered with several third party app developers and Google to release better trip planning and a range of real time public transport apps. More than 2 million downloads have occurred, with real time information being requested more than 22 million times each month.

Customer ServiceTwo new customer focused train operators have been created in Sydney Trains and NSW Trains and began operating in July 2013.

Sydney Trains provides quick, frequent and reliable train services in the Sydney suburban area. NSW Trains provides train services focusing on the needs of intercity and regional customers. About 1,800 of the new train operators’ customer service staff have been trained in new customer service behaviours, based on customer research with new professional looking uniforms for Sydney Trains and NSW TrainLink also being rolled out.
