VNA reported that The Hanoi Public Transport Management Centre will offer offline mode for virtual tickets for public transport from September 20 to make it more convenient for city’s commuters, said its director Thai Ho Phuong on September 18.
The application can be used without an internet connection. It is easy to use and suitable for all passengers, with secure information protection.
Hanoi currently has a total of 153 bus routes, including 128 subsidised routes, nine non-subsidised ones, 12 connecting the city with neighbouring provinces, and three city tour routes. The public bus transportation network has seen significant improvements in service quality. However, the goal of meeting 30-35% of residents' travel demand remains a major challenge.
The bus system operated by the Hanoi Transportation Corporation (Transerco) transported over 118 million passengers in the first six months this year./.
