ST Engineering’s mobility services business will also partner with ITE College West to provide students professional mentorship and internship opportunities at the company.

Singapore Technologies Engineering (ST Engineering) will present its latest smart mobility solutions at the LTA-UITP Singapore International Transport Congress and Exhibition (SITCE 2024).

As part of the group’s urban solutions business, the smart mobility showcase will highlight next-generation smart metro and road solutions that optimise operational efficiency, enhance safety and improve travel experiences while contributing to sustainability.

One solution that will be on display is the AGIL bus rapid transit (BRT) system. The AGIL BRT comprises a suite of integrated, digitalised smart mobility solutions that combine the key attributes of metro and bus systems for reliable and cost-effective mass transit. With a shorter implementation time compared to metro systems, it aims to provide high-capacity public transportation on designated lanes on roads.

Another is the three-door double-decker electric bus (e-bus), which will be making its debut in Singapore.

Co-developed by ST Engineering’s Mobility Services business and Zhejiang CRRC Electric Vehicle Corporation Limited (CRRC), it will be equipped with some of the latest technologies to ease onboard bus operations, such as ST Engineering’s AGIL DriveSafe+ technology, an all-round advanced collision warning system that leverages AI video analytics to provide accurate and reliable detectionof potential collisions in blind spots to improve road safety. 

The e-bus will also be equipped with roof-mounted solar panels that reduce overall power consumption and it runs on next-generation batteries, delivering a range of up to 310 kilometres on a full charge.

Meanwhile, ST Engineering’s mobility services business will partner with the Institute of Technical Education (ITE) College West to provide students with access to industry-relevant training in advanced automotive engineering systems and technologies through professional mentorship and internship opportunities at ST Engineering.

“Mass transit systems play a pivotal role in helping cities decarbonise, and technological advancements present new opportunities for progress in this area. Through combining leading-edge technologies with our deep engineering capabilities, our smart mobility solutions enable transportation agencies and operators to effectively address their evolving mobility challenges sustainably while elevating service standards,” says Chew Men Leong, president of urban Solutions, ST Engineering.

As at 3.43 pm, shares in ST Engineering are trading 2 cents lower or 0.44% down at $4.51.
