Golong Supports Hangzhou Bus in Launching “Convenient Reservation and Quick Arrival”

Golong's intelligent travel reservation machine product is a custom-developed intelligent terminal device based on reservation business scenarios, integrating mobile payment.


Recently, the Golong Bus Reservation Solution was officially launched in Hangzhou. Under the opportunity of smart, green, and sustainable urban transportation development and intelligent transportation fully improving people's lives, Hangzhou has successfully unlocked a new scenario of smart travel with the intelligent bus reservation system.

The Bus Reservation Solution is a new type of bus operation model and a new service of reservation. Elderly passengers without smartphones and young passengers can experience the service through card tapping. This service has received attention from a wide range of citizens, tourists, and domestic and international media upon its launch. It is not only an efficient application of digitized technology in Hangzhou's public transportation but also an innovative and leading initiative in the domestic public transportation field.

Golong supports the implementation of this project in Hangzhou to help the bus system improve operational efficiency, reduce operating costs, and provide passengers with personalized, precise, and seamless travel experiences.

This reservation bus service model brings passengers a convenient new experience of "reservation, and immediate arrival and bus response," effectively meeting passengers' personalized point-to-point travel needs in the shortest time.

To ensure passengers feel confident in making reservations, the online and offline dual-channel modes launched this time are all "reservation only" functions. Passengers can pay for their reservation by tapping a card or scanning QR code once the bus arrives. The original discount policies for passengers remain unchanged. Passengers only need to tap their cards on the intelligent travel reservation machine at the pilot bus station according to the instructions to complete the reservation.

Passengers can use cards for the elderly, student cards, or other types of transportation cards to experience the bus response service. After a successful card tapping, the intelligent travel reservation machine will display two options: "Reserve bus" and "Cancel Reservation." Passengers can select the "Reserve bus" option on the machine, and the screen will show the reservation status of the bus.



After a successful reservation, passengers can check the real-time operation status of the reserved bus through the intelligent travel reservation machine, which will display bus license plate information, trip distance, estimated arrival time, and other related information. After a reservation, the "cloud bus" system will quickly initiate an intelligent dispatch program to arrange a suitable nearby bus. Normally, within 10 minutes of completing the reservation, the bus will arrive at the passenger's reserved stop. Passengers can pay by tapping a card or scanning QR code after boarding and inform the driver of their destination. Similarly, if passengers decide to cancel their reservation after tapping their card, they only need to use the same bus card on the intelligent travel reservation machine and select the "Cancel Reservation" option.
This bus reservation service brings passengers a convenient new experience of "One-Click Reservation, Instant Response," effectively meeting passengers' individual point-to-point travel needs in the shortest time.

With the official launch of Hangzhou's first pilot offline bus route, the reservation bus solution is expected to become a mainstream trend and development direction for future transportation.

Golong's intelligent travel reservation machine product is an effective combination of a new bus operation model and Hangzhou's dual-channel online and offline reservation service. Besides the advantages of responsive bus travel service, bus companies can use data from reservation buses to plan and adjust travel schedules flexibly, reducing unnecessary travel time.

The implementation of this project marks another breakthrough and progress in the public transportation field by Golong with its strong technical capabilities and outstanding product advantages. Through the successful pilot of the responsive bus in Hangzhou, Golong has accumulated effective experience and will continue to explore the passenger-driven demand matching model, iterating the reservation bus solution. This provides optimization for partner bus companies' operation models, enhances passenger satisfaction, and ensures orderly urban traffic.

As a hardware and software system service provider, Golong Technology is the first company in China to introduce an all-payment-integrated machine into the bus field. Golong is committed to providing innovative technology and professional solutions to enhance transportation system operational efficiency and enterprise management levels, focusing on the intelligent transportation field to provide more convenient and efficient public services.

As early as 2017, Golong assisted Hangzhou Bus Group in successfully achieving comprehensive mobile payment coverage. Hangzhou Bus is also the first bus company nationwide to fully implement mobile payment applications in collaboration with Golong Technology. The newly added intelligent travel reservation machine promotes a new bus operation model and the new service. The application of the intelligent travel reservation machine in bus travel scenarios further assists Hangzhou in achieving practical results in intelligent transportation that fully supports people's lives and work. It is another significant progress in the "smart bus" field following the comprehensive mobile payment coverage in Hangzhou.

The new travel service is set to become one of the mainstream trends in future transportation development. The Golong intelligent travel reservation machine, as an innovative and efficient intelligent terminal product, has obvious advantages and potential. At the technical level of public transportation, it can effectively ensure the accuracy and reliability of the bus response.

In the near future, it is believed that the Golong intelligent travel reservation machine will, through precise data analysis and the effective combination of intelligent dispatch, help bus companies reasonably arrange vehicles and routes, thereby effectively reducing ineffective traffic flow on the roads.

Golong's next phase goal is to use "smart buses" as the entry point to create public transportation application scenarios, continuously exploring the application of "intelligent travel reservation machines" in various fields and scenarios. With the strong support and cooperation of bus companies, Golong aims to continuously expand the application of intelligent travel reservation machines, creating more public transportation application scenarios where "intelligent travel reservation machines" can be directly used. This will provide new bus operation models and the new services for more enterprises and passengers.Golong's intelligent travel reservation terminal is an effective integration of a new bus operation model and Hangzhou's online and offline dual-channel  reservation service.
