NSW Minister for Transport and Infrastructure Andrew Constance announced two global giants in the public transport space have launched new apps for Sydneysiders, giving customers access to real time apps for the first time. Moovit and Transit App were both selected to receive early access to restricted data before it opens up to everyone later this year.
The announcement comes as Transport for NSW moves ahead with its plan to open up more data to developers and innovators, awarding a $1.7 million contract to build a new online Open Data Hub.
“This is a win for transport customers – two global transit apps available in more 700 cities worldwide are now live with Sydney transport information. This is also great for tourists who can now access the apps they use at home, to get around our great global city. “Together these apps have more downloads than our entire country’s population, but as our Future Transport agenda progresses we’ll have more ground-breaking ideas to offer our customers,” Constance said.
