Synopsis

This project aimed at creating a multimodal transportation tool which, which enables travellers to book multiple modes of transport to get to a destination from the source, simultaneously. These routes are converted into detailed itineraries which can be directly used and booked by the users. A competitive analysis and research into the online travel scenario was conducted.

Considering that the initial stakeholder group was extremely large and generic, an intense user study was carried out, keeping in mind the most common user profiles. The research data was analysed and various insights provided the design and concept direction leading to the development of a in a fully-fledged web-based tool.
