Journey planners

John D. Nelson

A chapter in Elgar Encyclopedia of Transport and Society, 2025, pp 212-213 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: For a public transport system to be used, the public must know where and when the service is provided. Over time, the provision of journey planning information in real time has become more targeted to the individual and available at more stages of the journey. Information is now commonly provided via apps, websites or via social media and allows passengers to plan and amend their journeys as required. The COVID-19 pandemic has made issues of data privacy and protection even more critical and has reinforced the need for interactive and personalised approaches to information provision.
