==History==
TL was formally established in 1988 following the devolution of infrastructure and public transport policy areas to the Freician government. Plans had actually been made for an island-wide transportation network shortly following self-government in 1969. In 1980, plans were published by the government of Kibanan Hywea that proposed the creation of a ''Freice Transport Organisation Board'', which would oversee the operations of buses and other public transportation. However, a change in government meant that these proposals did not develop beyond a draft.<ref name=": About">[https://i.imgur.com/LJrd3HN.jpg/ "About"]. ''landua.fa''. Retrieved 9 April 2020.</ref>

The National Transportation Agency, operating under the name National Transport (Freician: Tawsita Landua) is a government body responsible for managing the majority of the transport network in Freice. It was founded in 1988 when the Freician government assumed responsibility for transport and infrastructur and is headquartered in Sekapa.[1]

TL has responsibility for all public transport in Freice, including buses, taxis, and water services.[2] It is also responsible for operating, maintaining, and improving roads in Freice.[2] It may, with the consent of the Island Meeting, license transport services to private companies, with Connections Transport Company being the only private company with a license operating in Freice.[3] National Transport maintains close links with United Trenchways

History

TL was formally established in 1988 following the devolution of infrastructure and public transport policy areas to the Freician government. Plans had actually been made for an island-wide transportation network shortly following self-government in 1969. In 1980, plans were published by the government of Kibanan Hywea that proposed the creation of a Freice Transport Organisation Board, which would oversee the operations of buses and other public transportation. However, a change in government meant that these proposals did not develop beyond a draft.[4]

In 1986, the government of Kenis Wamia successfully negotiated the devolution of transportation and infrastructure management from the federal government to the island government. The government ordered the formulation of a new transportation policy, with the lack of existing infrastructure between communications a key problem.[5]

The government opted to adopt broadly similar operational arrangements adopted by the federal government. A draft paper was released and debated on in the Assembly of Delegates, with the paper and approved amendments passed as the National Transportation Agency Act in 1988.[1] The act came into effect in September 1988, with all public transportation previously managed by the federal government falling under the responsibility of the new body.[4]

Organisation

TL is a state-owned company that exercises, with one exception (as of 2022), a monopoly on all public transport and associated areas in Freice. TL is under the authority of the Inspectorate of Lands, an executive department of the Government Council.[4] Decision-making is made by the Executive Board, which is appointed by the Inspector of Lands with the advice and consent of the Island Meeting. The head of the Executive Board is the Chief Executive Officer, who reports to both the board and the Inspector of Lands.

TL is divided into four distinct management areas:[6]

  • Bus networks - responsible for overseeing the management and operation of the Freician bus network.
  • Non-land networks - responsible for sea transport (often alongside federal authorities).
  • Non-public transport networks - which regulates taxis and other private, non-public transportation.
  • Road management - oversees the management and maintenance of all Freician roads.

The Executive Board has oversight over all areas, with specific duties delegated to individual members and their advisory teams.

Operations

Bus operations

National Transport operates a number of different bus services, operating in select geographical areas:[7]

  • Sekapa
    • SekapaBaho - bus operation throughout the district of Sekapa, with some services extending into neighbouring districts.
  • Koimuke and Dukorane
    • Baho'me Pabu Hani - bus service between the cities of Fiama and Lui.
    • Baho'me Tuge Okuatite - regional bus services operating across Koimuke and Dukorane.
  • Roheo Radei Oratite
    • Baho'me Radei Oratite - regional bus services operating across Roheo Radei Oratite.
  • Marana Pratsa and Mopeta Pratsa
    • Baho'me Matubi - single bus service connecting small, coastal communities.
    • Baho'me Radei - regional bus services operating across Marana Pratsa and Mopeta Pratsa.
  • Peka, Ritora Iisa, and Sekapa Seiva
    • Baho'me Pontru - bus service operating in central Freice, with certain services co-opted with SekapaBaho.

Taxi operations

  • Tawsita Tigetua'me - subsidised state enterprise offering taxi services across free. Operating for profit.

Corporate identity

From its creation, TL has used various identity markers on its services, with the TL livery a prominent feature on buses operating in Freice. All buses operated by TL have used a white, green, and blue colour scheme, with the word 'LANDUA' and the TL logo. On special occasions, different colour schemes have been used - including the flag colours during national celebrations. In 2013, for the first time, advertising was allowed on the side of buses for the first time.[8] Bus services are run under the name Freice Bus, which has also appeared on buses from 2013.

Use

Fares and concessions

All busses run by TL operate a standardised fare system, in which single journey fares are charged in relation to the length of the journey (through zones of travel). Initially, there was a single flat fare for all journeys, regardless of length; this was abolished in 2001 due to cash-flow problems.[9] Zones of travel are usually two-to-five miles, with fares increasing incrementally as the passenger moves from zone to zone. Passengers may also buy day, weekly, and monthly tickets from local post offices or from their local bus depot, which allows them to travel without paying for each journey, and usually at a reduced overall cost.

Concessions are provided for children under 13, pensioners, and the disabled. Children are charged half-price for any journey (including when purchasing multi-travel tickets), whilst pensioners and eligible disabled travelers are not charged.[10] Pensioners may use their pension card as a form of identification to establish their concessionary status; disabled persons must apply to the bus depot for a concessionary card.[10]
