High Quality Traffic Information for Express Bus

March 27, 2024

해당이미지
The population of South Korea is largely centralized in the capital area, up to more than 50%, and it causes huge traffic jams on expressways, especially during summer holidays and traditional national holidays every year. As of February 7, 2024, the expressway of the country has a span of 5,016.6 km in total. Although the highway network is quite tight compared with the nation’s land area, additional expressways are constantly built in order to reduce traffic congestions clustered in the metropolitan area, and consequently, expressways are continuously increasing.

Increasing highway construction is the immediate cause of making changes to highway routes. Currently, 1,700 express buses are operated per day on average and there are 15 routes from Seoul to Busan, the second largest city in South Korea situated in the southeastern part of the peninsula, and still new routes appear perpetually during big holiday seasons because drivers prefer detours to avoid traffic jams.

Formax Network has developed a system and has been operating a service for several years now, which not only instantly generate constantly-changing new express bus routes, but also provide the accurate bus arrival information to which the traffic situations of those new routes are applied. Our related technologies are :
 • Calculating frequently-changing required time through real-time vehicle tracking
 • Tracking newly-made detours upon real-time traffic conditions
 • Instantly generating new routes and applying them to data center

Based on the technology constantly evolving through repeated operations, Formax Network has the ability to develop various ‘mobility tracking’ systems. This is the result of improving more than 20 years of experiences and know-how in developing ‘city bus arrival information system‘ and ‘location-based taxi control system.’

In respect of both providing the traffic information content in South Korea and developing a ‘location control and tracking system of diverse mobility’ based on these content, Formax Network is the partner that you can trust.
