Safety and smart energy usage are currently a big focus in the rail industry whilst a variety of IT companies will be presenting their latest passenger information, ticketing and payment solutions that are all helping to enhance the customer experience. Whether it is a pioneering electric bus or rail vehicle or cutting-edge IT solutions, the Exhibition offers a simply unmissable glimpse at the defining trends set to shape the future of public transport.Public transport is heading in a new direction: the urban mobility landscape is changing rapidly and re-defining the way people move around cities the world over. The changes and challenges facing public transport and how it can reaffirm its role in the city will be the focus of UITP’s (International Association of Public Transport) World Congress & Exhibition in Milan. The slogan ‘SMILE in the City’ is a reflection of the sector’s optimism but also a reminder of the importance of cities in our future.For additional information about the World Congress & Exhibition please visit: http://www.uitpmilan2015.org/ ABOUT BYTEMARKA New York City startup with offices in the UK and Australia, Bytemark provides mobile ticketing and payment solutions for transit, attractions, and events.
