Intelligent Transport Systems for Bus
Improve operations and passenger service with an integrated technology solution.
The Scalable Solution for Authorities and Operators
Bus authorities and operators of all sizes are faced with the multiple challenges of increasing ridership and managing increasingly complex networks and fleets to deliver more efficient, reliable and safe services. The Trapeze integrated Intelligent Transport System (ITS) solution connects the multiple bus operational tasks with a central system, collecting and communicating key information in real-time.
You will be able to monitor operations and react to incidents proactively and effectively. By delivering more efficient services with better on-time performance for low-frequency buses and reduced waiting times for high-frequency buses, you will get a quantifiable increase in passenger satisfaction
Suitable for both large authorities running fleets of thousands of vehicles, and smaller regional operations, the powerful, scalable capabilities of the Trapeze ITS platform provide visibility and control over core business processes. Authorities gain insights into the services delivered, while operators can ensure they meet service quality benchmarks.
Find out how Trapeze Intelligent Transport Solutions empower transport teams to manage all aspects of operations.
Gain Visibility and Control Over All Tasks
Trapeze ITS modules are tailor-made for buses, covering areas of planning, operations, Automatic Vehicle Location and Control (AVLC), ticketing, headway management, real-time passenger information (RTPI), incident response, depot management and business analysis.
Integrated technology to plan, operate and monitor bus operations provides accurate real-time information to passengers and ensures your services run more efficiently and effectively.

Trapeze Intelligent Transport System Capabilities
Deliver service control, passenger information and business reporting with a scalable integrated solution.

Real-Time Control
Increase the efficiency of operational command centres through a centralised operations system. Scale modules and capabilities to your specific business needs. The ITS system actively informs control centre dispatchers when incidents occur, enables dispatch and communication with vehicles, and provides an accurate overview of all operations.

Signs & Displays
Improve the customer experience by providing accurate, up-to-date passenger information. Along with next-stop announcements, the ITS updates destination text on internal and external signage, as well as smart devices and prepares data for multi-functional in-vehicle displays. The control centre can use the on-board computer to communicate with passengers or listen-in to the vehicle during emergencies.

Smart Operations
The ITS automatically calculates vehicle positions at all times to automate: vehicle monitoring; standard operating procedures; driver relief monitoring, and timetable adherence data collection. Trapeze ITS is intuitive and easy to use and can be configured to specific organisational needs as well as individual user requirements.

Incident Decision Support
Trapeze’s Operations Control Centre gives dispatchers and controllers full access to ITS functions to respond to incidents as they occur. Users can react quickly to problems on the network, detect and manage errors or disturbances, and deploy vehicles and crew in the most effective configuration relevant to the incident at hand.
How Trapeze ITS helps key stakeholders
Make public transport more attractive to passengers by exceeding their expectations with services that are reliable, frequent, safe and efficient.
Transport Authorities
Connect the moving parts of your system with centralised, scalable technology to collect, communicate and analyse comprehensive operational data. Gain all information necessary to ensure that services are delivered according to required benchmarks.

Transport Operators
Improve safety, security, ease of use, frequency and on-time running to ensure passengers reach their destinations as quickly and smoothly as possible. Keep customers informed with accurate real-time information; manage disruptions and special events more efficiently.

Passengers
Meet expectations by delivering frequent, on-time services supported by accurate real-time communications: before travel, street side and on board. Provide easy ticketing access and enhance the passenger experience to make public transport the preferred choice.

Drivers
Provide accurate real-time information to drivers, depot control centre and passengers through automated communications. Reduce time spent on manual communications by optimising in-vehicle and external signage to convey current operations.

Service Controllers
Reduce the number of manual tasks that need to be completed to enable more effective, quicker communication between system controllers and drivers. Enable control centres to communicate with vehicles collectively or drivers individually for quick incident response.

Executive Management
An integrated central source of data for reporting and statistics helps manage operator contracts to ensure they meet KPIs. ITS allows for consistency in the delivery of services across large, multi-operator networks, optimising operations to increase efficiency.
