Gent (Gand) [Ghent], VOV informs visually impaired commuers about transit disruptions with new app

Gent (Gand) [Ghent], VOV App Inform Transit Disruption

In Progress

Municipal officials and project partner District09 developed the app using De Lijn transit data. Commuters enter their phone numbers and receive real-time texts when their routes are detoured or disrupted. A planned update in autumn 2023 will support user reports of sidewalk obstructions. The mobile app is part of the city's Open Services project, which designs digital services accessible by other cities and third-party developers.
