We are looking forward to the discussion with our Founder/ CEO Yi-Chang Chiu and this stellar panel. Stay tuned for a post event recap! Smartcityonline.org.tw #smartcities #RoadUserCharge #mobility

We are excited to share that the Regional Multi-Modal Mobility Program (RM3P) Dynamic Incentivization (DI) has entered the next phase of development and a select number of early users,?called Pioneers, will be able to test the GoMyWayVA app before it is fully launched in the Fall of 2025. GoMyWayVA Pioneers?will test the app, try features, provide feedback and help shape the future of the app while earning exclusive rewards for participating. RM3P DI is led by the?Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT), the Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation (DRPT) and the Northern Virginia Transportation Authority (NVTA). This data-driven initiative aims to improve safety, reliability, and mobility for travelers who commute to, from and through Northern Virginia (NoVA), while incentivizing them to seek alternative sustainable mobility options. Sincere thanks to our partners at VDOT, DRPT and NVTA, the entire Metropia team, and our technical and marketing subconsultants who have worked tirelessly to reach this milestone: Arch Street Communications, Avid Core, ICF Next and CommuterLink. If you live or travel in the Northern Virginia area, visit www.gomywayva.com to learn more. We would love to have you join us as a Pioneer! ? #MobilityasaService #MaaS #DI #RM3P #Transportation

It was a full house for the Movability Breakfast earlier this week in Austin, Texas!? Dynamic speaker line up included CapMetro CEO Dottie Watkins, City of Austin Assistant City Manager Michael Rogers and Dr. Joshua Schank. Austin, like most fast-growing cities, has significant transportation challenges, but we left feeling hopeful, energized and inspired for the future. Metropia was a proud sponsor of the event, and many thanks go out to our tablemates at Red Fan Communications, MOD BIKES, The University of Texas at Austin Center for Transportation Research and @Blue Door Strategies for joining us. We are looking forward to the Movability Summit in September! #Movability #MobilityasaService #Austin #transportation

Metropia’s 2024: A Year of Engineering Smarter Mobility ?? As we start the new year, we’re reflecting on a year defined by innovation, collaboration, and measurable impact. At Metropia, our team of developers, engineers, stakeholders, and partners tackled some of the most complex challenges in transportation, delivering scalable solutions that advance the future of mobility. Here’s how we made a difference in 2024: ??Houston ConnectSmart Year two of the Texas Department of Transportation's Houston District's ConnectSmart platform highlighted the power of seamless intermodal integration and real-time data. With features like Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, HOV/HOT lane recognition, and third-party navigation, we supported the sale of 54,000+ transit tickets and eliminated 51,000 vehicular miles traveled, reducing 46,000 pounds of CO? emissions. Learn More: https://lnkd.in/eia2C2wQ ??Taiwan’s MaaS API Platform Serving 10+ million users, this national system integrates 9,000+ transit routes and powers 200,000 daily trips across cities, rail, buses, bikes, and ferries. With 2024’s successful mid-term review, the platform continues to set a global standard for scalable MaaS architecture. ?? GoMyWayVA Launching an early adopter “pioneer” program in February 2025, GoMyWayVA represents our latest engineering milestone. This modular MaaS platform, developed with the Virginia Department of Transportation and the Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation for the RM3P program, is designed to inspire sustainable travel behavior through features like dynamic incentives and intermodal trip planning. ?? Carbon Cred Partnership Our partnership with CarbonCred bridges MaaS technology with carbon credit certification, empowering cities and employers to quantify and reduce emissions through actionable VMT and carbon data. ?? Driving the Conversation From the ITS World Congress and NVTA Roundtable, to the TDM and Carbon Reduction event, Metropia’s leadership shared key insights on AI, dynamic incentivization, traveler behavior change, and the future of integrated mobility systems. ?? What’s Next? As we step into 2025, we’re doubling down on engineering-driven solutions that prioritize sustainability, interoperability, and user-centric design. ???Read our full 2024 highlights blog: https://lnkd.in/gdVviJ3p Here’s to building the future of mobility, one milestone at a time! #MobilityEngineering #MaaS #Sustainability #TransportationInnovation

Metropia executives Drs. Yi-Chang Chiu and Vassilis Papayannoulis will be attending the 104th TRB Annual Meeting at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center from January 6-8, 2025.

Recommending the best routes (and toll costs) with HOV, HOT, or Express Lane mixed facilities based on vehicle occupancy is no trivial task—it's a complex technical challenge. We're proud to have solved this problem and delivered a practical, user-focused solution that makes a real difference for the users we serve. ???? #HOV #HOT #Expresslane #MaaS

Sharing the RM3P News Digest which highlights our upcoming MaaS system release in Northern Virginia ??GoMyWayVA. With a robust All Modes intermodal trip planner, mobility wallet, and unique dynamic toll cost predictions for all NoVA Express Lanes, users can compare time and cost trade-offs for every mode of travel. ?????? This system also emphasizes advanced personalized ATIS, personalized user informatics, behavior change campaigns, and dynamic and contextually relevant recommendations and incentives, aiming to create a TSMO-connected MaaS system to help Northern Virginians travel smarter. If you regularly travel from/to/through the NoVA area, we’d love to have you join our early adopters “Pioneer” launch and try out the app for yourself. Spread the word and help us shape the future of mobility! Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gk5Nhk-W #GoMyWayVA #MaaS #RM3P #VDOT #NVTA

???? Did you know your employer or school might already have a carpool group in the ConnectSmart app? Just use your work or school email to find out! If not, let us know, and we’ll help set one up! ?

From the entire Metropia team, we wish everyone a happy and safe Thanksgiving holiday! ??
