A smart shuttle service for Brunei-Muara District was launched by Dart Logistics Sdn Bhd in partnership with Mitsubishi Corporation at 118 Residence yesterday.

Present at the launch were Permanent Secretary at the Ministry of Transport and Infocommunications (MTIC) Haji Mohd Nazri bin Haji Mohd Yusof and Ambassador of Japan to Brunei Darussalam Maeda Toru.

The shuttle service implements the use of artificial intelligence to plan routes, said Acting General Manager of Dart Logistics Siti Nor Syaahidah Haji Sahron.

The service is a result of collaboration between Dart Logistics and Spare Technology Solutions Inc, which is a joint venture between Spare Labs Inc and Mitsubishi Corporation.

“With the knowledge and experience gained by Mitsubishi Corporation from their on-demand bus projects in Japan, we aim to resolve Brunei’s transportation issue,” she said.

The shuttle service has 24 stops in Gadong, Kiulap and the Raja Isteri Pengiran Anak Saleha (RIPAS) Hospital areas.
