BusUp is a Spanish start-up company involved in the Barcelona Pilot Lab, together with MOSAIC, which aims to improve the on-demand bus service offering and increase the number of passengers served. Last May 2018, BusUp launched its first commuting Pilot in the metropolitan area of Barcelona. This innovative bus-sharing service connects commuters who share the same destination and arrival time, and enables them to share the same bus ride. Thanks to its demand aggregation algorithms, routes are created upon users’ requests, in terms of stops and arrival times. Thanks to BusUp, users can enjoy more direct and personalised trips, which considerably reduces trip duration, travel costs, and significantly contributes towards reducing congestion and pollution.
