Cardiff council says it’s working on a new transport user app to improve the traffic situation in Cardiff. But some people say that the app won’t help the traffic situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Cardiff council says they will be engaging on the public how to build an intelligent transport network. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The council believes that having a transport user app for the public, developing integrated ticketing between different forms of transport and other measures will inform the public about the best way to travel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new travel app will let people know real-time data on traffic. The council says it’s a way to reduce traffic congestion, improve air quality and make Cardiff a healthier city to live and work in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the future, the council will also explore the use of \u2018demand management systems’ where a bus could be be ordered like taxis, taking a route based on the service determined by public requests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jonathan Post who is a cyclist says “If it tells people where congestion is, it will encourage more people not to use their cars if there’s a quicker way. Especially good for people are cycling, what council does is beneficial for climate change.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
