Combining Public Transit with Taxi 將公共交通與的士連接

Transit + Taxi 公共交通 + 的士

Traditionally there has been unfair discrimination by journey planning algorithms keeping these modes of transport separate.

We do not believe in this segregation! Every transport mode must be free to mingle, and allowed to co-exist in the city.

#freedom #alltransportmodesmatter #makecitiesgreatagain

在傳統的行程搜尋,公共交通和的士行程都是分開的。

但我們不同意這樣的分隔。每一種交通辦法都應該可以自由接駁和共存。

#自由 #所有交通都重要 #再令城市閃耀

Our SuperRouter is now combining public transit with taxi to create new routes you never knew existed.

我們的超級行程搜尋器現在會把公共交通與的士接駁,塑造前所未有的行程。

This is the future of multimodal mobility in cities.

這就是在城市裡用多重模式移動的未來

Here's an example of a trip from Sai Ying Pun to Shek O. The trip that combines MTR and Uber arrive 50 minutes faster and require much less walk. Using a multimodal route will cost around $80 rather than $135 if ones takes taxi all the way!

看看以下由西營盤到石澳的行程。當我們從地鐵轉乘到Uber時,我們可以將行程時間縮短50分鐘。還有這行程大約會是$80左右,這比起全程的士平超過$50蚊!

A New Routing Preferences Screen

全新的行程偏好設定

There is now a new Preferences page with a number of personalisation options. 

現在有個全新的偏好設定,裡面有幾項把行程個性化的選擇。

By default Car + Transit will be in Lite mode, and show up in a 'Citymapper Labs' section. 

起初,“車+公共交通”將會用簡化版而顯示在“Citymapper 實驗”欄裡。

But feel free to upgrade to Pro mode to see multimodal results mixed more aggressively in top suggested results. 

但請隨時提升到 Pro 模式。那時你會見到更多多重模式行程在“建議”欄中出現。

 

The advantages of trains + the advantages of taxi

鐵路的優點 +的士的優點

A better connected city. Access more parts of the city that might not be well supported by public transportation. 

連繫得更好的城市-到城市的每一個角落去,就算公共交通有限也沒問題。

Reduced costs. More affordable options than taking a taxi all the way, especially for long distances. 

減少支出-比全程搭的士更實惠,尤其是長途

Reduced travel times. Sometimes trains are faster. Sometimes cars are faster. Sometimes combining them is faster.

減低行程時間-有時候地鐵會快些。有時候的士會快些。有時候兩樣加起來會快些。

This is exciting. We’re fusing two separate complex networks in the city: the metro network and the road network, while accounting for real-time information such as train departures and car availability.

好興奮!我們正把兩個複雜的網絡連起:公共交通網絡道路網絡,亦同時顧及實時資訊例如列車到站時間和的士供應量等。

There is a lot to improve. These are the crazy wild early days of this new type of multimodal routing. We plan to improve our calculations of prices, travel times, transfer costs and include features such as better pickup points for taxis around train stations. 

還有很多地方需要改善。這只是多重行程模式的開始。我們計劃要改善車費、行程時間、轉乘代價和加入例如車站附近最適合的搭車位置等等。 

We will get better over time as we learn from your usage and feedback. Please do share this with us.

我們會從你們的反饋學習而一日一日的進步,所以請記得跟我們分享啊!
