Thales has launched TransCity, a cloud-ready range of evolutionary fare collections solutions, destined for public transport systems. TransCity, a web-oriented technology, simplifies both passengers’ journeys and operators’ day-to-day operations.
With TransCity, Thales redefines the concept of urban travel by providing passengers with a variety of travel passes. Travelers will be able to either swipe their cellphones or contactless bank cards to enter public transportation; or use their contactless travel cards or simply use a traditional ticket. Payments can be processed on-line or on the go, with smartphones, or through newer technologies such as near-field communications.
Operators using TransCity will be able to better manage and supervise their network infrastructure, anticipate potential equipment failures, as well as optimizing their maintenance services. In addition, with Thales’s big data analysis tools, TransCity can help operators monitor critical periods to better accommodate travelers’ needs such as regulating train traffic or entrance-exit configuration.
