The iBus2 Services will support Transport for London and its Operators for all contracted service vehicles (which at the date of this notice include Buses and Trams and which may extend to other vehicles (such as riverboats) in TfL's network) across Greater London by providing real time passenger information and vehicle location information to relevant stakeholders and interfacing systems. The iBus2 Services will facilitate service control and emergency response and will integrate with the existing voice radio system, ticketing and performance management systems. The iBus2 Services will also provide the data collection and calculation of the mileage and reliability performance data that enables payments to Operators. The iBus2 Services will also be able to support fleet evolution, which will include the provision of monitoring and control facilities for zero emission/alternative fuel source vehicles, and bus safety equipment introduced under the Bus Safety Standard or new or upgraded facilities required to support TfL's contracted service vehicles. The iBus2 Services will enable the introduction of new ITxPT compliant assets onto vehicles; advances in networking technologies (such as vehicle to everything) and voice and data communications; vehicle location technologies; integration with other strategic systems; and integration with TfL's video management systems (including streaming, remote control, digital evidence capture and video analytics).
