The Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore), JTC and SMRT Services Private Limited have signed an MoU to develop innovative urban mobility solutions that seamlessly integrate multiple modes of transportation, for better connectivity and accessibility. This is in line with the government’s aim to make Singapore a living lab to develop and test new urban solutions. The mobility-as-a-service lab will be the first of its kind in the region aimed at improving commuters’ travel experience by seamlessly integrating train and bus networks with next-generation transport modes. These include electric automated vehicles, bike sharing systems and personal mobility devices such as e-scooters. SMRT has been developing its mobility-as-a-service capabilities to provide a customised solution at NTU Singapore’s campus and CleanTech Park in Jurong Innovation District will be transformed into a live test-bed for the integration of multiple transportation options and new technologies.
