241 Telmap has introduced multi-modal routing as part of its involvement with the 234 In-Time project that will pilot and validate an innovative pan-European approach to Real Time Traffic and Travel Information (RTTI) services. The reliable and real-time delivery of these services to the individual traveller and to traffic management centres is likely to reduce drastically energy consumption in urban areas, across different modes of transport. The traveller is expected to change his travel behaviour according to the information he/she receives, opting for the most efficient and quickest modes for his/her travel journey.

Telmap is a leader in mobile location-based services, and provides white-label, fully hosted and managed LBS to over 26 mobile operators globally. The company provides the In-Time project with multi-modal, door-to-door routing that includes all available transportation forms such as walk, drive, buses, undergrounds and trams, flights and more. The service will initiate in six cities across Europe: Munich, Florence, Vienna, Bucharest, Oslo and Brno. Additional cities are expected to come on-board
