Transport Card Forum
The Transport Card Forum (TCF) is a joint venture by the UK DfT (Department for Transport) and Smartex.
Membership is open to all who are involved professionally with transport applications of Smart Cards within the UK.
The TCF was established to assist in enabling the implementation of integrated transport policies as set out in the UK government Integrated Transport White Paper.
The main aims and objectives of the Forum are to identify, through its working groups and by regular plenary meetings, those specific areas where it feels there is a potential beneficial and active role to play in:
• encouraging the introduction, co-ordination or development of smart technology in transport
• identifying and defining proposed actions for DfT and other organisations to take nationally or internationally
• initiating and / or influencing the development of standards
