nd2 UITP INDIA SEMINARON IT SOLUTIONS FOR PUBLIC TRANSPORT

Introduction

Adoption of information technology has the potential to deliver a

revolutionary impact on the public transport sector. It can help

public transport authorities and operators to improve

operational efficiency, enhance relationship with customer,

integrate with emerging mobility players and services, and

manage cyber-security, governance and organisation issues, etc.

The public transport sector must foster digital innovation and be

bold in trying out innovative solutions. Digitalisation is not an

issue for the future. It is already happening and the public

transport sector needs to embrace it, to take advantage of the

numerous opportunities it offers as well as preparing itself for its

role in the future mobility market. For example, personal mobile

devices, such as the smart phone, are and will remain key in terms

of ticketing, journey planning and inter-modality.

India’s urban population will reach 590 million by 2030. There

would be at least 60 cities with a million plus population, at

present the figure stands at 42. It is imperative to develop new

cities or redesign existing cities to accommodate the burgeoning

population. It is believed that the information and

communication technologies are essential for the development of

economy and the society in the current days. Government of India

latest demonetisation drive also create an opportunity for public

transport agencies to move towards cashless travel and mobile

ticketing.

Government of India has planned to setup “109 Smart Cities”

which include Integrated Public Transport Plan. Smart Cities

cannot be built without Smart Public Transport. There is need for

faster adoption of technologies for transport authorities and

operators.
