Mass Transit the Personal Way

Cities’ magnified challenges

One area where all societal change comes together is the city. Challenges around sustainability, digitisation, inclusion, growth at an unprecedented pace are all magnified in urban spaces where people are on the move. Coupled with unexpected events such as natural disasters, economic swings and pandemics, it is clear that we need a contactless and low impact way to move around. Cities are very aware of this and our SmartCity survey proves that many cities are embracing technology to deliver better services for their citizens.

Keep moving, the ‘do no harm’ way

Investing in a high quality transport infrastructure needs to happen on and below ground, but also in the non-tangible technology infrastructure. Taking out friction with choices across many carriers, automatic best fee calculation and selection and payment as well as physically embarking on and exiting the journey. Topping up, providing payment choices for all types of fares should be seamless, contactless and offer interactive additional services.
