This interview with Alex Kreetzer was originally published in Auto Futures
With everything going on today, public transport has been hit hardest. In fact, many of the major transport authorities around the world have reported up to a 95% reduction in users, which not only shows the magnitude of the problem we face today but puts the future of these businesses and services in uncertainty.
From a commuter standpoint, there is also the uncertainty of what will happen to the rush hour and the way we travel to work in city centers. In a post lockdown world, we could see the end of the nine-to-five as we know it.
To dive into the future of public transport and commuting in urban ecosystems, I speak with Scott Shepard, VP, Global Public Sector, at Iomob Technology Services, an open mobility-as-a-service platform for rail, cities, and their transit agencies, which enables transport providers to offer its citizens world-class connected mobility services.
