CMAP ITS Architecture v4.0

RTA Transit Hub:APTS

Description

This project involves design and development of the Illinois Transit Hub to better manage transit operations. This project heading is used to cover three separate efforts:
–Deployment of the Illinois Transit Hub itself
–Transfer Connection Protection–– This effort involves real–time monitoring of CTA, PACE, and Metra operations to protect against missed transfers.
–Regionwide Unified Fare Collection System (CTA and Pace) —This effort supports deployment of a unified transit fare collection system.

The latter two efforts represent uses of the Transit Hub to share information between transit centers in the region.
