- TUNNLL: URBAN BUS SERVICE...
Tunnll is a next-generation mass transportation system for small towns. It is more efficient than fixed timetable bus services and than traditional Demand-Responsive Transport. Thanks to its efficiency, Tunnll is a sustainable solution for small towns with limited or no budgets. The main objective of the proposed project is to advance the existing pilot (private beta) to a full-scaled system and validate its ability to serve a massive number of daily users.
Start date: 05/01/2021
Duration in months: 9
Problem Description
Mass public transportation is an expensive operation. Hundreds of small towns around the world cannot afford that. Non-existing public transportation leads to ever-growing towns’ dependence on personal cars, one of the main contributors of greenhouse gas emissions, air pollution and traffic congestion. Tunnll is a next-generation mass transportation system for small towns, more efficient than fixed timetable bus services.
Goals
New services
Challenges
The main challenge is the upgrade of the existing pilot (private beta) to a full-scaled system and validate its ability to serve a massive number of daily users.
Innovation results
Tunnll enables access to key destinations and services within a small town, regardless of the level of income of any individual passenger. In a Tunnll-enabled town, any citizen can afford to access any of the amenities available in town. This is a life-changing technology for many.
