RATP – New Parisian bus network

In short

As Ile-de-France Mobilités and RATP prepared to change a significant part of the Parisian bus lines in April 2019 and a communications project was being prepared, RATP contacted User Studio to design a tool dedicated to helping passengers understand the forthcoming changes.

Challenges

Mobility uses are changing, mobility policies are evolving, cities and their neighbourhoods are undergoing change, even more so in Paris than elsewhere. In this context, the challenge of producing quality Passenger Information is essential for an urban mobility brand such as RATP, which is involved every day in dealing with a formidable flow of passengers. During a change as significant as the reorganisation of the bus routes, the expectations and demands of passengers are all the more important given that digital methods of communication and simulation have been perfected in recent years. A nice digital service design topic.
