Go-Hi

01/10/2024

We want to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you for joining us on the Go-Hi adventure! 🚀

Since the pilot project was launched in 2021, we’ve had 5,000 of you hop on board, and it’s been an amazing ride. From exploring the stunning Highlands and Islands to simplifying your travel experience, Go-Hi was all about making mobility easier for you.

Sadly, the pilot project and funding has now come to an end and the app will be closed from today for any further travel bookings.

However, the success of this trial has provided us with valuable insights into improving public transport for residents and visitors across some of Scotland’s most rural areas.

Thanks again for your support and interest in Go-Hi - it's been incredible to have you with us for the journey. Your contribution has helped shape the future of travel!

Keep an eye out for future MaaS developments from HITRANS and more exciting travel innovations in the Highlands and Islands.

The journey towards better transport continues!

The Go-Hi app has been featured in Transport Scotland's Fair Fares Review as a prime example of a Mobility as a Service (MaaS) app benefitting regional transport access.

Our work at HITRANS alongside project partners showcases the benefits of integrating different modes of transport into one seamless experience, from planning, booking, ticketing and payment.

This transport integration not only simplifies the user journey but also significantly reduces costs and travel time, contributing to a greener planet. 🌎

As Go-Hi continues to gain recognition and set standards in 2024, we are more inspired than ever to continue pushing the boundaries of what's possible in transportation.
