City­wide bus op­er­a­tions man­age­ment

With the ETC Plat­form, Biel's pub­lic trans­port con­trols their bus op­er­a­tions in real-time, from man­age­ment and fore­cast­ing to pas­sen­ger in­for­ma­tion. All func­tions are in­te­grat­ed into one sys­tem and are net­worked through­out Switzer­land, so that real-time data con­sis­tent­ly flows to the con­trol cen­ter, stops, and dig­i­tal chan­nels.
