Imagine if your city's buses, trains, and shared scooters all worked together like one giant, synchronized machine. Instead of juggling five different apps and tickets, you'd have one simple system that tells you the fastest way to get home. It's like giving a city a single brain to manage all its moving parts so people actually want to leave their cars at home.
Urban commuters rely on private cars because shared mobility is fragmented, difficult to pay for, and poorly synchronized with public transit.
A federation of digital tools including real-time management, prediction, scheduling, and a unified ticketing system for shared and public transport.
If you are a shared mobility operator dealing with low adoption among car-dependent families — this project developed integrated ticketing and real-time management that can change the behavior of 34% of car users.
If you are a city authority dealing with inefficient transit links — this project developed a federation of prediction and scheduling tools to reduce total door-to-door travel times across 15 European cities.
If you are a software provider dealing with fragmented payment systems — this project developed a unified ticketing system for shared and public transport to increase the modal share of new shared mobility.
Based on available project data, specific pricing or cost structures for the developed tools are not provided.
Yes, the project aims to implement these systems in over 15 European cities by 2026, with a scaling target of 30 cities by 2030.
Based on available project data, the specific licensing terms for the integrated mobility network and ticketing systems are not mentioned.
It uses a federation of solutions including integrated ticketing and real-time management to blend public transportation with shared mobility systems.
The project runs from June 2023 to May 2026, with a goal of reaching 15 cities by the end of the project period.
The consortium is highly diversified with 31 partners across 13 countries. It shows a strong commercial orientation with a 39% industry ratio (12 companies), including 2 SMEs, balanced by 7 universities and 2 research institutes. This mix suggests a high capacity for translating technical research into market-ready urban tools.
