• Transit Infrastructure Maintenance Solution (TIMS)

Maintaining transit infrastructure is critical to reducing downtime and improving customer ride satisfaction. And yet, identifying where to perform infrastructure maintenance can be a painful process, often to the point where it doesn’t get done. There can be several causes that contribute to problems such as excessive wear on overhead catenary, which ultimately can result in system downtime.
