Tranzito teams with Moovit on self-serve mobility hubs

June 25, 2020

Tranzito, a mobility operator, has partnered with Moovit, a mobility as a service company and the maker of an urban mobility app, to bring MaaS to city curbs in order to boost transit equity in smart cities, according to a press release.

Tranzito is championing the concept of curbside mobility hubs, co-locating private shared mobility next to public train and bus stops.

Moovit's platform will be embedded within Tranzito's Mobi kiosks; users can plan trips from point A to B and view suggested routes, real-time transit information, as well as book and pay for shared mobility rides along city streets and at rail stations.

Universal transit information is displayed to anyone, while registered Tranzito users can access their personal account to book rides without having to use a smartphone.

Tranzito will roll out three Mobis over the next few months — in collaboration with LA Metro at its newest Metro Bike Hub in Willowbrooks/Rosa Parks, as well as with the Los Angeles Department of Transportation at its first Mobility Hub at Wilshire Grand Center, and with Caltrain at Caltrain SF Mobility Hub.
