All-in-one traffic and transport mobile application "HKeMobility" launched (with photo)

     The Transport Department (TD) announced today (July 24) that the all-in-one mobile application "HKeMobility" has been launched as one of the initiatives to take forward the Hong Kong Smart City Blueprint.
      
     The TD's three existing mobile applications, namely "Hong Kong eTransport", "Hong Kong eRouting" and "eTraffic News", are integrated into "HKeMobility", with the user interface improved and new features added. The public can acquire real-time traffic and transport information anytime and anywhere to plan their journeys.
      
     The public can also make use of "HKeMobility" to get traffic news with a voice-over function, snapshots of traffic conditions from about 180 CCTV cameras installed at major roads, estimated times of arrival of buses and trams, and parking vacancy information for about 220 car parks. To promote the habit of walking, the walking route search feature, now covering Causeway Bay and Tsim Sha Tsui, will be progressively extended to other districts. "HKeMobility" has also enhanced the walking route searching feature by offering the choice of barrier-free routes for people with visual and mobility disabilities.
 
     "HKeMobility" for Android phones and iPhone are available for free download from Google Play and the App Store respectively. Alternatively, members of the public can download it by scanning the attached QR code or through the link on the TD's website (www.td.gov.hk). Users of the TD's three existing mobile applications will also receive guidelines on how to download or update to "HKeMobility".
      
     For enquiries and opinions about "HKeMobility", please call 1823 or send an email to the TD at tdenq@td.gov.hk.
