Having access to real-time trip planning information, like arrival and departure times, detour communications, travel alerts and bus capacity data are critical components of a rider’s experience using transit. Sharing real-time information can help attain and attract riders by showing transit as a competitive, cost effective, efficient alternative to other modes.
With a balance of data expertise, software development skills and national transit planning experience, Cambridge Systematics is your partner in optimizing accurate, high quality real-time information for your riders.
We work with agencies of all sizes across the country to empower riders with real-time information to make trips as seamless as possible. Recently, our team partnered with the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) to provide real-time bus and rail capacity data to their riders. Riders were equipped with the information they needed to make decisions about their trips and help ensure that they could maintain COVID-19 social distancing measures while onboard.
CS is an industry leader in prediction accuracy. We deploy the open source TheTransitClock prediction engine to help transit agencies generate highly accurate stop-by-stop vehicle arrival predictions, even when events like extreme weather and large gatherings disrupt typical schedules.
