Next stop: the future

ELCHE’S bus service is set to be transformed with a sweeping digitalisation plan coming into effect later this year. The department is embarking on the digitalisation project to modernise the service and make it more convenient for all users.

From the use of mobile payment options to an innovative app, the changes are set to revolutionise the way people use public transport in the city from September. Authorities announced the €1.8 million scheme on Thursday, March 23.

Over the next six months, the department is set to revamp its ticket and season system, making it easier and more convenient for users to purchase tickets and board buses. A new app will also allow users to find out information about routes, request stops, and purchase tickets using a QR code.

The update will also make life easier for bus drivers with an innovative digital control panel. Buses will also be equipped with cameras for user safety, and a voice service will be available for visually impaired users.
