Budapest launches Mobility-as-a-Service app

Budapesti Kölekedési Közpoint (BKK) transit authority has launched a new Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) app that enables public transport users in the Hungarian capital of Budapest to plan their journeys, purchase digital tickets and transit passes and receive real-time information about traffic-related changes to transport services.

In the longer term, BKK plans to integrate additional transport services, including taxis, demand-responsive Telebus lines and shared cycling and e-scooter services, as well as navigation and parking functions for motorists and cycle route planning.

BKK’s long-term goal is to introduce combined tickets, which help travel of families or home office workers, among others, according to BKK.
