SAN DIEGO, April 5, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Cubic
Corporation (NYSE: CUB) today announced its Cubic
Transportation Systems (CTS) business division will feature
panelists and moderators at the American Public Transportation
Association (APTA) Fare Collection/Revenue Management &
TransITech Conferences – two events to be co-located at the Hyatt
Regency Jacksonville Riverfront in Jacksonville, Florida, from April 9 – 11.
The TransITech Conference will address managing innovation in
the best interest of operations and safety. The Fare
Collection/Revenue Management Conference will discuss current fare
collection projects and issues as well as share experiences and
best practices. The second conference will also host a two-part
Super Session: the first half will address mobile payment and the
state of the technology and where it is heading, while the second
half will focus on Mobility as a Service (Maas) and the benefits
and challenges for public transit. Cubic executives will
participate in both sessions as panelists.
"Cubic is working to ensure our agency customers are prepared
for the inevitable disruptors in the industry, including MaaS as
well as mobile payment and ticketing," said Matt Cole, president of Cubic Transportation
Systems. "It is vital that transit agencies take a central role in
shaping the direction of MaaS, which is not a replacement for
public transit, but a complement to it. Both mobile and MaaS
technologies are giving riders more options for how they move
around their cities, pay for the services they use and make
informed decisions about when to travel."
