Streamline bus terminal operations and optimize capacity utilization.
Our solutions transform bus terminal operations and capacity utilization while creating an efficient point of interchange that ensures continuity of passenger flow, smooth transit between different segments of the transport system, and driver safety.
Terminal entry can be controlled through proximity sensors at bay and beacons on each bus, license plate recognition cameras or geofence positioning, triggered by traffic lights, gate opening or digitaldisplay information.
The web-based application provides control room personnel with an easy-to-use interface with the functionality required for interchange management. It requires no proprietary add-ons, so it can be used in any contemporary environment.
Single visual control interface, automatic or manual bus/bay assignment and more.
Consists of various functionalities such as position, status and movement oversight, expected arrivals and planned departures, bus boarding and alighting control, door open and closed status, overview late/on-time departures
Auto assign buses per predefined rules; assign different bay; routes and departure times; reallocate short and long-term parking; intervene bay exit processes.
Driver directed to the allocated bay; automatic or manual dispatch; driver departure notifications; door close control and alerts; reversing sequence alerts.
Passenger or driver info displays; automatically updated in real-time; comprehensive content management; bay, platform and exit door display; bus arrivals, bay allocation and departures
Predefined operational rules handle dynamic bay allocation and automatically directs drivers to the allocated bay via the displays at the interchange entrance. Timely, automated dispatch supported by full exit control.
Keep passengers well informed of bus arrivals, bay allocation and departures through digital signage and audio announcements. Automatic bus and interchange door opening systems ensure passenger safety.
Increase interchange capacity and bay utilization, particularly important in urban areas where space is at a premium. Centralized management and automation significantly improve efficiency across the terminal.
Control center has complete real-time visibility and control across the entire interchange situation. With the ability to make manual interventions, operators can also view and manage the status of every connected device.
Advanced operations management and accurate real-time predictions.
To make it easier for residents to move around the city in already difficult conditions, for surface public transport Kyiv now uses a swipe payment solution created by an Estonian technology company Ridango.
“It is very important for the people of Kyiv that they can continue their daily activities as efficiently as possible even in the conditions of war, and in a big city, the comfortable functioning of public transport plays a significant role in this. To make it possible, we have developed a solution where passengers can confirm their right to travel by simply swiping a bank card, a phone, or a smart watch. The solution works in buses, trams, and trolleybuses, helping Ukraine move towards a better future,” said Vahur Viigimäe, project manager at Ridango.
Public transport in Kyiv stopped on the first day of the war, and it was decided to start it again on a symbolic date – May 9 this year. At the moment, street transport runs in a slightly reduced volume compared to pre-war times. “Every day, 1 million trips are validated, 29-30 million per month. This is half as much as before the war, but it is clear that the people of Kyiv are in dire need of convenient public transport,” Viigimäe added.
Viigimäe noted that the challenges in creating a solution for public transport in Kyiv were also technical: “They use the so-called Kyiv cards, which, in addition to having a banking application, are also used in transport services. Most holders of these cards have the right to travel free of charge. Therefore, it was necessary to ensure that such persons do not have to pay the fare.” The Ridango payment solution supports MasterCard and Visa cards (including virtual ones), and at the end of the year, support for Prostir cards, domestic payment cards of Ukraine, will also be added.
Ridango is a rapidly growing Estonian technology company. “Our ambitious goal is to become the world’s leading provider of smart transport systems and a well-established group of technology companies related to the public transport sector by 2026,” said the chairman of the management board of Ridango Erki Lipre.
