Solution
The 7-year operation and maintenance contract between RATP Dev and Saintes Grandes Rives and the Agglo proposes to modernize the BUSS network and make it more accessible, to encourage the 62,000 inhabitants to limit the use of their cars.
This includes improved service for all throughout the region, with :
- A new C line serving key locations.
- An “Allo'Buss” transport-on-demand service will be available throughout the day.
- An increased fleet of 100% electric bicycles.
- New bike models will be introduced (cargo and folding bikes) via the Bicy's service, as well as an extension of the short-term rental period and a new reservation system.
