The Régie des Transports de l'Ain operates across a large, low-density territory in eastern France with intense seasonal variation. New drivers must be operational fast, every season.
With Pysae Driver, a new driver can be fully operational on their route within a few hours. The app guides them through every stop
— Operations team, Régie des Transports de l'Ain
The context: a rural department with seasonal rhythms
The Ain stretches from the Rhône plain to the foothills of the Alps and Jura. The Régie operates regular lines, school transport and seasonal services across this vast, low-density territory.
The challenge: new drivers every term, passengers with no info
At the start of each school term, the Régie integrates new drivers who must learn unfamiliar rural routes quickly. Without digital tools: extended shadowing, printed route cards, radio guidance.
The solution: Pysae Driver as an onboarding tool
Two goals: accelerate driver onboarding and deliver real-time passenger information across the whole territory.
- Pysae Driver for route guidance: onboarding dropped from weeks to hours
- Real-time info at every stop via QR code or app, even in the most remote communes
- Seasonal scalability: adding vehicles at peak periods needs no extra infrastructure
Results
- Hours to onboard a new driver, not weeks
- Rural coverage: real-time info at every stop
- Seasonal peaks handled with no extra infrastructure
