378 Cubic Transportation Systems will be showcasing a range of advanced ITS solutions, including the company’s integrated, multimodal transport management platform.

This feature-rich platform incorporates a range of functions to connect previously fragmented and silo-based traffic control systems and public transport systems.   Cubic says its technology harnesses the flexibility and power of cloud computing for customer-focused solutions and is already bringing benefits to a wide range of clients across the globe. Service is delivered cost effectively:  the flexible pay-as-you-use model of cloud hosting means customers draw on and pay for only the resources they need. 

Cubic also will showcase its tolling solution, based on a multi-pronged approach incorporating an innovative back office solution including customer account management, account-based transaction processing, reporting and performance dashboards and a clearinghouse – all within a single enterprise service bus.

As the company points out, it has pioneered revenue management for 45 years and for some of the world’s most iconic cities. That spirit of solutions development responsive to customers’ needs is still at the core of Cubic’s business because today's mobility challenges demand technologically advanced and imaginative solutions: the company’s end users expect that the advances they experience in the rest of their lives are reflected in how they travel.

For example, you would pay a set amount in exchange for a monthly travel package covering up to 100km of free taxi journeys in your home city (including a guaranteed 15 minute pickup) and public transport usage within a 1,500km radius of your home. Not only would this option be cheaper than owning and maintaining your own car, you would
