Daejeon City Implements 'Low-floor Bus Reservation System' for Transportation-Disadvantaged Users
Daejeon City announced on the 3rd that it will implement a 'Low-floor Bus Reservation System' for local transportation-disadvantaged individuals starting this month.
The reservation system is designed to allow transportation-disadvantaged users to board low-floor buses by entering route numbers, boarding and alighting stops, wheelchair usage, and other information via mobile (app or web).
With this service, city bus drivers can receive boarding and alighting information of transportation-disadvantaged passengers in advance to prepare the lift operation, and transportation-disadvantaged users can prevent drivers from unintentionally passing their stops.
Additionally, onboard announcements on city buses will inform passengers in advance about the boarding and alighting information of transportation-disadvantaged individuals, encouraging them to keep space available, thereby enhancing the convenience of boarding for these users.
Earlier, in November last year, Daejeon City signed a business agreement with the Shinhan Credit Cooperative Social Contribution Foundation and WizOn, based in Daejeon, to establish the reservation system.
