Bangkok Transit
Efficiency Optimization Case
Passenger Flow Data Powers Transit Cost-Efficiency
Project Background
Bangkok, a key SE Asia hub with huge resident and visitor numbers, relies heavily on public transit. Yet long-term high-intensity operations have led to a common issue: rising investment has not delivered better operational efficiency.
To address this, Bangkok Public Transport deployed FOORIR’s smart passenger counting solution, leveraging passenger flow data for cost-saving, efficiency-boosting operational upgrades.
Project Requirements
Accurate Statistics
Precisely count passenger on/off numbers by vehicle, stop and time period
Passenger Capacity
Quickly spot low-load vehicles to detect over-deployment of transport capacity
Routes & Schedules
Develop new routes or adjustments via long-term, continuous passenger flow data analysis
Reduce Costs
Empowering managers with unified, real-time data visibility is key to large-scale cost reduction
Solution
FOORIR installs smart passenger counting terminals at each bus’s front and rear doors to collect accurate, continuous boarding and alighting data，The system calculates real-time onboard passenger numbers and load levels, clearly identifying full- and low-load operations，All data is centralized on one platform, enabling data-driven rather than experience-based decisions.
Project Benefits
Boost Utilization
Boost peak-hour service frequency; cut prolonged low-load vehicle runs in off-peak hours
Reduce Costs
Reduce ineffective departures and excessive capacity investment to improve long-term asset utilization efficiency
Improve Management
Automatically collects data and generates reports，boosting efficiency and enabling faster decisions
Improve Experience
Peak congestion eased, service schedules optimized, waiting times stabilized, and passenger satisfaction boosted
