This is how VR helps your municipality achieve truly inclusive public transport
Discover how Virtual Public Transport helps municipalities achieve inclusivity goals and the Local Inclusion Agenda (LIA). Increase accessibility and save on targeted transport with this innovative VR solution!
Municipalities face the challenge of making public transport accessible to everyone. But how do you ensure that residents—young and old, with or without disabilities—can travel independently? Virtual Public Transport offers an innovative solution that not only contributes to the Local Inclusion Agenda (LIA) but also directly increases residents' self-reliance and participation.
What is Virtual Public Transport?
Virtual OV is a virtual reality learning platform that allows residents to practice public transport in a safe, digital environment. This includes checking in with an OV chip card, transferring, and finding the right stop. The user-friendly platform was developed in collaboration with experts, ensuring it meets the real-world needs of people with both visible and invisible disabilities.
Why is Virtual Public Transport relevant for municipalities?
Increasing Accessibility: Virtual Public Transport makes public transport accessible for people with disabilities, the elderly, newcomers, and residents with fewer digital skills.
Encouraging independent travel: Users build trust and gain experience, making the step to independent travel easier.
Practical implementation of the LIA: Virtual Public Transport aligns with the themes of transport, education, work, and self-reliance that are central to many Local Inclusion Agendas.
Cost savings: By teaching residents travel skills, reliance on targeted transport is reduced – which immediately results in a cost benefit for municipalities.
Experience as a starting point
"Nothing about us, without us." This motto, taken from the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, is central to the project. Virtual Public Transport is being developed and tested in collaboration with experts with lived experience, ensuring the platform truly connects with daily life and the barriers people face.
Awareness and communication
Virtual Public Transport allows policymakers, public transport providers, and residents to experience the challenges facing public transport. This makes the platform a powerful tool for sparking discussions about inclusion and accessibility within the municipality.
