The Transport General Authority (TGA) recently concluded a successful showcase at the annual meeting of the Transport Research Board, held at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center. In a significant move, the TGA displayed two innovative technological solutions designed to improve both monitoring and the detection of violations during the Hajj season, which is a period that demands high levels of logistical coordination.
Additionally, the TGA has taken a bold step in the development of a comprehensive technical policy for ticketing and fare collection systems within the Kingdom. This initiative aims at unifying the ticketing processes for transport operators across different sectors, while also setting the technical and operational standards for such systems. This move is indicative of the TGA’s broader strategy to facilitate seamless transport experiences for both residents and visitors.
Participation in the Transport Research Board’s meeting is part of the TGA’s ongoing efforts to engage with international platforms that are at the forefront of transport technology innovation. This aligns with the TGA’s dedication to enhancing the transport sector in accordance with the National Transport and Logistics Strategy (NTLS), which sets forth a vision for the sector’s growth and development.
