Urban and inter-urban transport modes are diversifying and digitalisation makes it possible to offer more accessible and flexible services. Mobility Organising Authorities as well as private players, often start-ups, participate in this dynamic “new mobility” market.
The Mobility Organising Authorities are looking for effective solutions to meet the growing challenges of urban mobility in order to direct uses towards collective means of transport (public transport, car-sharing, etc.). The objective is to reduce pollution and traffic congestion problems. These authorities are developing the interoperability of transport tickets on increasingly extended networks. In this context, the digitisation of mobile tickets constitutes a flexible and practical means of deploying a new range of tickets to a given target (including, for example, variable fares depending on pollution or traffic peaks). In addition, transport operators must modernise their infrastructures and services by adopting digitisation on mobile devices (smartphones and connected objects).
