SUCCESS STORY

## TransLink: Bus travel time prediction pilot outperforms existing service by 74% with Azure Machine Learning

### Challenge

TransLink realized that in order to keep up with an increasing number of alternative transit options they would have to take a more human-centered approach to measuring success. By prioritizing their ridership experience, they knew they could dramatically improve on their current results.

### Solution

They identified a major area of improvement – reliable and accurate predictions of bus departure times at bus stops along its routes for their customers. MNP was engaged to determine if a new solution could provide more precise and consistent information than the existing solution.

### Results

Through the development of a machine-learning model, MNP contributed to the delivery of a pilot that was able to outperform the existing solution by reducing errors by 74%. This improved bus stop predictability for riders as well as provided accurate ongoing operations learnings for TransLink.
