June 05: Technologically enhanced and accessible stations
Customer centricity and smart operations: Complete control of stations and interchanges
The station is at the heart of the urban transport system. It is the hub and entrance where people board or interchange the trains, change the mode of transport or simply walk through. The question is how you optimize this limited urban space with the goal of building more liveable cities. The desire is to have an optimization which is beneficial for passengers and operators alike. The development of an integrated control system for the holistic control of a station is the logical step forward. Passengers who are attracted by consistent and up-to-date information about their journey and environment and operators who are interested in consistent and real-time information about their station assets.
