Public Transport Company Opts for Digital Solution to Raise passenger Safety and Satisfaction.

Hungary’s second largest city, Debrecen, is the region’s cultural and economic hub, with a rich history and rapidly expanding industry. Protecting the environment and improving service delivery for its 205,000 inhabitants are high on the municipality’s agenda.

Public service company DKV (Debreceni Közlekedési Zrt.) operates Debrecen’s network of buses, trams and trolleys to reduce the use of private transport and provide environmentally-friendly alternatives for getting around the city. The company carries around 40 million passengers each year.

Having recently upgraded its fleet, DKV decided it was time to make the transition to a digital two-way radio communications system that would enable it to enhance passenger services through extended coverage and advanced applications such as GPS-based fleet management.

Distribution partner Fercom demonstrated the advantages of the MOTOTRBO™ digital two-way radio solution and subsequently installed 250 DM 3400 mobile radios throughout DKV’s fleet.
