It's always fun to hangout with the awesome team @SwiftlyInc!
@Danielhep @kcmetrobus @Pantograph_App Awesome thank you! I was spoiled with @SwiftlyInc admin privileges while working at @mtamaryland (that and the daily absenteeism and cut lists).
@lmc @chrisarvinsf LA Metro just replaced their NextBus system with a @SwiftlyInc system and it only took a few months. Swiftly generates the passenger info and feeds it to Transit app. Swiftly also replaced the NextBus system for Boston MBTA and other agencies as well.
In the transit space, we have known about the 3G deprecation for years. @SwiftlyInc we have talked about this since I started in March of 2020. Incredibly disappointing to see this impact hundreds of signs when this could have easily been avoided through proactive procurement.
