From Mass Transit to Smart Transit

Public transport is the backbone of sustainable mobility and a key enabler of decarbonization and electrification strategies worldwide. This session examines how digitalization, automation, electrified fleets, and advanced analytics are transforming traditional transit systems into adaptive, demand-driven networks. It will explore how transport authorities and operators are accelerating the transition toward zero-emission mobility, optimizing energy efficiency, and integrating multimodal solutions. The discussion will also highlight the role of data-driven decision-making, infrastructure modernization, and electrification in building resilient, efficient, and climate-neutral public transport ecosystems.
