Finnish rail company developing multimodal ticketing

Finnish state railway company VR is working on the development of an intermodal ticketing service that will seamlessly connect rail services with other modes of public transportation. VR aims to develop a model that allows passengers to buy a single ticket that enables them to travel on multiple modes of travel, known as a ‘travel chain’. Once travellers select a starting point and destination, the system will choose the most functional mode of travel and route.
