Traffic management as a service

Improving urban mobility together

Our team

TMaaS is built by people. We started our journey in February 2018 with a world class standard team of researchers, developers and innovators to build an online traffic management center for cities around the globe

Our vision

Our vision is enable cities to see, show and tell: See what’s happening in their cities, show and tell citizens what’s going right and wrong in the streets and listen to their responses and act up on it.

Technology

TMaaS will be built on an open, modular data platform that facilitates adaptation to new technological trends and innovations.
