Teleste at SmartRail Europe 2017: Creating a Smooth and Safe Passenger Experience

TURKU, Finland, April 3, 2017 --

Travelling is changing fast as passengers demand smarter, safer and smoother ways to move around. At SmartRail Europe 2017 Teleste will highlight how to build up an intelligent public transport system that provides attractive services to your customers and helps you increase ridership. 

Teleste Corporation will highlight its solutions for creating a smooth and safe passenger experience at SmartRail Europe 2017. The event will take place 5-6 April in Amsterdam. At our stand, E2, we will highlight our solutions for rail and city transport that help operators bring ease and efficiency to travelling, both onboard and at stations.

Utilizing information and communication technologies, and implementing mobility have made it possible to adopt new, smart services into travelling. Operators can e.g. bring relevant and up-to-date travel information to passengers when needed, guide passengers during the journey, and improve their safety and security on stations, platforms and vehicles. By providing a smooth and safe passenger experience, operators will be able to increase customer loyalty and ridership, whilst ensuring efficient people flow.

"When building modern, digital transport systems, passenger services definitely deserve a focus. Today's passengers want smarter, safer and smoother ways to move around and transport operators need to answer to their demand to build up an attractive service," said Kimmo Ylander, Business Line Director of City Transport for Teleste. "We are looking forward to meeting you at SmartRail 2017 to discuss how our solution will be able to help you bring ease and efficiency to travelling, both onboard and at stations."

We also invite SmartRail visitors to join us at an interactive roundtable for discussing and sharing ideas and opinions on the subject Improving passenger experience by providing personal services based on passenger identification. The discussion will begin at 4 p.m. on April 5. Please visit the official event site to check the agenda and details.
