Transport infrastructure and vehicle security integration specialist Synectics Security has rebranded to Ocular Integration under new leadership.

The change represents what the supplier says is its “independent and visionary focus on delivering the latest technical solutions for protecting buses, trains, stations, depots, terminals, ports and the people who use them.” Dublin Bus and Stagecoach are among its customers.

Chris Jepson (pictured, centre) has been appointed Managing Director of Ocular Integration. He has a background in security technology engineering, particularly relating to what the business says is “intelligently integrated on-vehicle solutions for highly regulated urban transport providers.”

Mr Jepson brings over two decades’ experience in the industry. Ocular will continue to operate from its Nottingham head office, building on an experienced team and a 45-year history formed under the Quadrant Security Group and Synectics Security brands.

Visitors to Euro Bus Expo at the NEC Birmingham on 12-14 November will be the first to see the Ocular brand identity. On-board hub technology will also be on show that the business says is “set to unlock new levels of integration and operational efficiency by revolutionising the on-vehicle ecosystem.”

Speaking about the change in identity, Mr Jepson says: “Transport infrastructure and service operators face an increasingly complex array of challenges.

“The age-old need to protect revenues and ease cost pressures is often now seemingly at odds with finding new ways to guard against sophisticated physical and cybersecurity threats, to work more collaboratively with stakeholders, and to meet passenger expectations in terms of service provision.

“At Ocular, we have both keen vision and ability to help customers navigate this tricky and rapidly evolving landscape. We have a vast network of technology partners and decades of technical and project management experience – projects always delivered in strict compliance with regulatory standards.

“All of this means that whether an organisation needs the latest in AI-based analytics, the ability to securely share system access or footage with authorities and/or insurers, or innovative new on-vehicle camera and mirror replacement technologies, we will always focus on what matters to deliver solutions perfectly tailored to specific needs and budget.”

andy burnham tfgm £15.6 billion (1) The funding announced by Chancellor Rachel Reeves today (4 June) has been allocated to several combined mayoral authorities to use on rail, tram, road and bus infrastructure. Transport for Greater Manchester revealed today that part of the £2.5 billion it will receive will go towards making the Bee Network fully battery-electric by 2030. An as-yet undecided portion of that will support a planned investment in 1,000 new zero-emission buses over that period, the mayoral authority said. That is part of plans to build the UK's "first fully integrated, zero-emission public transport system", with trams and trains also set to benefit. Liverpool City Region's already announced BRT system is among the projects to which its £1.6 billion will be allocated. Under those plans - due for realisation by 2028 - a high-speed network will be served by articulated buses which are modelled on the 'Glider' in Belfast. It is due to link Liverpool city centre with John Lennon Airport, and Liverpool FC and Everton FC's respective stadia along three routes. Although the model of bus has not been confirmed, a Van Hool Exqui.City on loan from Belfast was last year used as a demonstrator. That 18m vehicle can accommodate around 30% more passengers than a typical bus and has three sets of double doors. The funding will also go towards buses elsewhere in the city as the region heads towards franchising services by 2027. Liverpool Mayor Steve Rotheram with a 'Glider' which was on loan from Belfast last year - an example of the sort of bus which could serve the new BRT Bus services in the East Midlands region will be boosted by the funding, thanks to the £2 billion handed to it today by the government. Some of that allocation will be used for a rapid transit network on the Trent Arc between Nottingham and Derby. Between the two cities, the Freeport, Infinity Park Investment Zone and Ratcliffe-on-Soar will also benefit from the improved bus services. South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority's newly announced commitment towards bus franchising has been boosted by £350 million in funding as part of that region's allocation. The funding for West Yorkshire will help build new bus stations in Bradford and Wakefield. Likewise, the Tees Valley Mayoral Authority will put its sum towards a new £15 million bus station in Middlesbrough. Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander says: "Today marks a watershed moment on our journey to improving transport across the North and Midlands – opening up access to jobs, growing the economy and driving up quality of life as we deliver our Plan for Change. "For too long, people in the North and Midlands have been locked out of the investment they deserve. With £15.6bn of government investment, we’re giving local leaders the means to drive cities, towns and communities forward, investing in Britain’s renewal so you and your family are better off."
