Sustainability
Ecology is no longer (only) a facade “must”, but it is an essential “plus” for a growing basin of population: most regular public transport users want transport in the name of ecology and respect for the environment; overall 89.5% of the sample declared that the choice of the means of transport is influenced by environmental considerations.
The economic element also has its impact: almost a third of users say they are very influenced by this factor; overall, over 9 out of 10 users are said (at least to some extent) to be affected by this variable.
The key safety factor technology
According to the GPF-IBE research on the user side, further added value of the technology is perceived in particular in terms of safety: just think of the advanced braking services, assisted driving e automated road holdingable to give the driver details in real time on the road (for example sensors that signal obstacles or pedestrians, developed around IOT infrastructures).
These aspects (attributable to the “primary” needs of “security”) are flanked by elements aimed at ensuring greater effectiveness and fluidity to the service, such as the interconnection with traffic lights (to always find green when the vehicle passes, the so-called “green wave “) Or by other means, as well as the instrumentation capable of informing the” driver “on the conditions of the route and on the” status of the demand “, ie the passengers waiting at the stops.
