The company has provided one of the first commercial be-in/be-out ticketing solutions, built on Siemens SiMobility and incorporating services for intermodal transport.
Passengers can download the Connect ‘permission to ride’ app to their smartphone; this is detected by a system installed in the public transport vehicle and enables passengers to board and travel without the need to purchase tickets. Trips are charged to the passenger’s account.
Connect provides additional transport options beyond public transport, including car or bike sharing and is also compliant to rail industry requirements.
