Cubic Transportation Systems releases white
paper addressing ways to advance the transportation industry’s role
in creating more resilient cities
Cubic Corporation (NYSE:CUB) today announced its Cubic
Transportation Systems (CTS) business division published an
industry-guiding white paper titled, “Leveraging Technology to
Adapt and Thrive Post-Pandemic.” The white paper discusses how the
latest transportation technologies can help cities make
transportation networks and services safer, more efficient and
resilient in the long term to COVID-19 and other pandemics.
The white paper stems from a global initiative from Cubic called
Project Rebound, which aims to rebound and restart cities in the
wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. COVID-19 has emphasized weak points
within transportation systems and brought new challenges to cities
and citizen engagement. It has also provided the industry with a
unique time for reflection to learn, adapt and grow to be better
positioned to address challenges in the future.
“We have the honor of working alongside some of the most
innovative cities and transport agencies in the world,” said Jeff
Lowinger, president of Cubic Transportation Systems. “We will
continue leveraging our expertise to benefit the entire industry
and traveling public by creating safe, equitable, sustainable
cities of tomorrow – this has been the goal of our NextCity™ vision
from the outset.”
Cubic’s white paper examines the most feasible solutions for
cities, transit agencies, tolling authorities and departments of
transportation in combating the following current and potential
future challenges:
- Creating safe environments for transport staff and travelers to
limit the spread of disease;
- Building trust in public transportation beyond public safety
measures to encourage ridership;
- Adapting systems to be more flexible and scalable to meet
ever-changing demands;
- Limiting traffic congestion and improving throughput for
alternative modes of transportation; and
- Shaping equitable, sustainable and economically viable
transport networks that promote prosperity.
While the pandemic has caused disruption in all industries
including transport, it has also exacerbated existing challenges
relating to service, access, funding and investment. Cubic’s white
paper addresses the need to build more resilient networks that
inspire collaboration and take new approaches for managing mobility
systems.
“Our core responsibility during this challenging time has been
to anticipate our customers’ needs,” said Ian Woodroofe, senior
vice president of strategy and business development, Cubic
Transportation Systems. “We’ve been working side by side with our
global partners to create and deliver solutions that keep people
safe, improve efficiencies and give actionable insights to help
customers plan for the unknown.”
