Norwegian State Railways NSB has awarded 5550 HaCon a contract for a new timetable information system.
HaCon’s HAFAS journey planner integrates real time data to provide rail travellers with up to the minute information on potential delays, alternative routes and transport modes, actual seat occupation and wagon order. Passengers are able to access the information via the internet, mobile applications and message boards on the station and train.
"Whether the railway traffic runs as planned or there are planned or unplanned disturbances, we want to inform our passengers about the status and their travel options," explained Peter Hausken, ICT manager for operations at NSB. "The aim is to offer good transport solutions with premium information systems for the customers at all times."
