Seldom do railways have the resources to maintain their infrastructure at a level that ensures steady-state performance. Rather, they are faced with prioritizing maintenance actions to optimize safety and reliability under the burden of constrained resources. Given this reality, rail operators are finding the solution to working more efficiently lies in using information technology. Learn more »

By harnessing the vast amount of existing rail corridor data in a prioritized plan, and then assigning the work and monitoring the execution and results with technology applications, many rail operators are doing more with less resources. This strategy, Linear Asset Decision Support, not only results in steady-state asset performance under constrained resources, but can also improve the asset condition and provide a positive return on investment.

This white paper details the options for analysis of measurement data within Bentley’s AssetWise Operational Analytics (formerly Optram) application. It focuses on the analysis and forecasting of data trends that enable engineers to make better-informed decisions about maintenance and renewals. The white paper also covers the classes of data and issues related to this data. Download now »

The role of passenger rail is a vital component in intermodal transport. As we move toward an integrated travel system—across cities, countries, continents and, eventually, globally—rail operators need the tools and inspiration to ensure they are already building platforms (both physical, such as hubs, connections, hardware for example, as well as digital hubs, including information systems, data management processes, etc.) that will provide the very best in mobility as a service.

Key takeaways include:

• Why intermodality is vital;

• The challenges facing rail operators, including technological integration; connectivity; ownership; revenue sharing; and governing issues;

• How to design the best door-to-door information platform that gives the traveller personalized and real-time data that they truly need;

• The 'last mile problem' and the role of rail in an intermodal world;

• What travelers expect from any intermodal travel hub; and

• The three pillars of the perfect global intermodal system and how these can guide your immediate decisions for future success.
