Archway rolls out first bus app with UrbanThings

Fleetwood-based Archway Travel has launched its new mobile bus app for its first bus services that started earlier this month.

Developed in collaboration with UrbanThings, a London-based transport technology company, the new app introduces a suite of features designed to enhance the travel experience for passengers. The features include advanced journey planning tools, real-time information with live bus tracking and a mobile ticketing system for easy boarding. The app also offers personalised notifications and accessibility features for passengers with mobility needs or visual impairments.

Sam Archer, Director of Archway Travel, shared: “We’re proud to offer this innovative app to our community. It represents a significant step forward in how we provide transport services, making travel more accessible and convenient for our passengers.”

Nicole Easden, Business Development Manager at UrbanThings, added: “Partnering with Archway Travel to develop this app has been an exciting journey. The app not only modernises the travel experience bus but also ensures that their passengers have the tools they need to navigate daily commutes and school runs with ease.”
