Dubai introduces rail automated system to enhance paperless transactions
Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has partnered with Keolis-MHI (operator of Dubai Metro and Tram) to launch the Rail Automated System Project to trial a paperless initiative that uses advanced technology.
Through close collaboration between RTA’s Rail Agency and Keolis MHI, the scope of work for this initiative was mapped out to ensure its success, and a total of 11 business modules were identified as having the greatest need for digitisation, including ‘Permit to Work’, which allow access to large-scale work and activities to happen on the Metro/Tram, Dubai Metro Operation Control Centre, Dubai Tram Operation Control Centre, Environment – Management of Power/Energy/Waste, and others.
The initiative is compatible with RTA’s objective of expanding and improving its level of digitisation and sustainability in rail operations.
