APTA’s EXPO, which takes place only once every three years, is a one of a kind event that showcases many of the transportation industry’s most innovative and creative solutions. It attracts an audience of over 15,000 attendees and is the largest event of its kind in the world.

“This is an exciting opportunity to showcase some recent success stories with some of North America’s largest and most dynamic authorities in public transit” said Grant Quick, Avolution’s Vice President of American Operations. “Given the complexity of public transit today it is a significant challenge for transit providers to streamline their organizations while continuing to provide customers with new technologies, such as live scheduling updates. Our ABACUS software can help agencies plan and manage change, taking the pain out of these transitions.”
