MTR Nordic has launched its MyHeadsapp travel app which it says will provide public transport updates for service disruptions on routes in Stockholm, Sweden.

MTR (Mass Transit Railway) operates and maintains the city’s metro and commuter trains in cooperation with public transport company SL (Storstockholms Lokaltrafik).

Mark Jensen, CEO of MTR Nordic, says: “We have developed an app that gives travellers information about any disturbances on their own journey from start to finish, no matter how many changes you make.”

The app is mainly designed for commuter trains which have longer routes and fewer departures but can also be used on all modes of transport offered by SL, the company adds.

Additionally, the app features a travel planner with a map which shows the location of trains and buses.

MyHeadsapp is free to download and is available for both iOS in the AppStore and Android in Google Pay.

    Driverless cars will have a detrimental effect on congestion and security while the road safety benefits can be achieved sooner and cheaper using ADAS, argues Colin Sowman. Many Governments are consulting about the introduction of driverless vehicles and even running trials. As 70% or 80% of crashes are caused by human error, the promise of a crash-free future of driverless, self-driving or autonomous vehicles (call them what you will) is alluring, as are the claims of reduced congestion and lower emissions
