Creating the Transportation System of the Future, presented by KCATA
KCATA and its RideKC partners are working to create the transportation system of the future. In the past year and a half, RideKC has developed two mobile apps to increase the accessibility of our customers. This has included the RideKC mobile ticketing app that allows customers to plan, track and pay for trips, and the RideKC Freedom On-demand app that allows customers to access an Uber-like on-demand service. Both apps, as well as traditional means for accessing transportation services, have resulted in us collecting a wide and varied list of data points. RideKC wishes to engage interested parties on how to incorporate new technologies and service models to create more direct transportation solutions, better inform customers, produce a seamless customer experience, and coordinate data output across a multitude of formats into a singular master database.
