The top benefits of using passenger counters on public transit.
Studies indicate that 53% of the world’s population lives in urban areas. As the world’s population continues to increase, experts believe that the percentage of people living in urban areas will surge even higher, rising to 67%. With the expected growth in urban areas, the demand for transportation will continue to increase with the growing population. Hence, there will be a clear need to increase the supply of mass transit.
One of the ways public transport providers can foster the growth of public urban transportation is by using innovative solutions such as a passenger counter.

However, with the influx of innovative tools like a Wi-Fi tracker and a passenger counter, these companies can improve their passengers’ experiences drastically.
