The International Union of Railways has awarded Hit Rail a five-year contract to supply a Real Time Mobility Data Exchange service.
UIC RTMDE is designed to provide a common platform for access to live passenger train running information. It will implement UIC’s IRS 90918-11 open standard for the exchange of real-time data. Any railway or ticket retailer will be able to access information on all active passenger train services, including any disruption, which they will be able to provide to their customers through their own IT services and apps.
This will enable railways to meet obligations arising from the CER Ticketing Roadmap and the EU’s Passenger Rights Regulation, and will allow all stakeholders to participate more efficiently than through multiple bilateral exchanges.
