A blueprint to develop an intelligent transport system over the next 15 years was jointly launched yesterday by the Land Transport Authority (LTA) and the Intelligent Transportation Society Singapore.

The 44-page document highlights ways in which high-quality information can be provided for diverse users, with interactive elements, to create a safer and better travel experience for example.

To provide accurate information on crowd levels in buses and trains, warnings delivered to drivers via in-vehicle devices so some accidents can be avoided, and perhaps, even driverless buses to ferry commuters within certain areas.

The Smart Mobility 2030 master plan would take urban mobility to a new level, in LTA chief executive Chew Hock Yong’s words.
