Virtual Transport Card Troika Launched for Moscow Public Transport 

The Moscow Metro, VTB and Yandex Go, within the framework of the Mobility as a Service (MaaS) concept, have started testing a new product - the MultiTransport unified transport subscription. It will unite different transport operators that provide transportation services into a single digital ecosystem with multimodal travel. The platform is supposed to help passengers choose the most suitable travel option.

 
 The first stage of testing will involve all seven types of public transport (metro, monorail, MCC, MCD, ground transport) and taxis. At the same time, users are offered three types of tariffs, which include 5, 10 or 20 taxi rides, as well as an unlimited subscription for public transport.

 
 The service will appear in the Moscow Metro or Yandex Go applications, and in the future they will add carsharing, scooter and bicycle rental. Also, in the future, the service will take into account traffic congestion, comfort, quality and offer the most convenient route option with an indication of the total amount of the trip.

Moscow Tests MultiTransport Service 

An intelligent system for reducing traffic jams Edge Vision is being tested in Moscow by the Moscow Transport Department.

 
 It was installed at two crossroads in the Novomoskovsk administrative district. Edge Vision collects online traffic data, processes it, and then sends a signal to switch traffic lights. The key feature is that all calculations take place on-site and do not require the transfer of big data to the data center.

 
 According to the Deputy Mayor of Moscow Maxim Liksutov, during the first tests "it is already possible to predict an improvement in traffic by 10-20%." Intersection capacity is also projected to increase by 25% during normal times.
