- Will provide real-time information to passengers
- Application to be built by HaCon
- Supports Andorra's vision for sustainable transport
Siemens Mobility, HaCon and eos.uptrade will create an intermodal mobility platform for Forces Elèctriques d'Andorra (FEDA), which was appointed to create this platform by the Government and the seven councils of Andorra. The application will integrate several transportation modes across the country and the first phase of the application will be available for download by riders in fall 2019. It includes public buses, electric bike-sharing and chargers for electric vehicles, and on- and off-street parking. It will allow riders to view available transportation options, plan their trip in real-time and manage payments across the various modes of transport. The investment will help Andorra achieve its' sustainability goals, including lowering carbon emissions and promoting public and multimodal transport.
As the trend toward urbanization accelerates worldwide, cities need solutions for some of their most pressing demands: the need to transport growing numbers of people in an efficient, reliable, safe and sustainable way. Therefore, comprehensive mobility concepts and seamless intermodal solutions are becoming increasingly important.Siemens Mobility has the extensive expertise and experience to deliver digital innovations that increasingly cross-link the "complete mobility system". Under the slogan "Shaping connected mobility," we will showcase those pioneering solutions at this year’s UITP Summit in Stockholm from June 9 - 12 – solutions that guarantee availability, make trains and infrastructures intelligent, increase value sustainably over the entire lifecycle, and improve passenger comfort and travel experience.

Siemens Mobility, as Engineering and Maintenance partner, is supplying the rolling stock for driverless operation. Moreover, the scope includes project management, signaling, power supply, communication systems, depot and workshop equip¬ment, platform screen doors, testing and commissioning and system integration in a turnkey approach.
- Modern signaling and interlocking systems
- Increases operational capacity and reduces delays
Siemens Mobility and the Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa (PRASA) have successfully installed and operationalized a new signaling system in Johannesburg Park Station, Braamfontein and Pretoria station. To date, new interlocking systems have been installed in 40 of the 92 stations in South Africa's Gauteng province as part of PRASA's drive to deliver a world class commuter railway. Gauteng is the country's most populated province, home to three of the five largest cities in the country. The new system will increase operational capacity, allow the system more flexibility and reduce delays, improving overall operations for the transit system.
