Castilla y León Buscyl transport system development

Overview

The Buscyl public transport system in Castilla y León has reached significant operational milestones, recording approximately 856,000 users and nearly 19 million trips after one year of service. To improve management, the regional government is deploying new functionalities, including a mobile application, a pre-booking system, and a ‘digital twin’ simulation tool to model the network using Big Data and predictive analytics.

To support the system’s growth and the economic impact of providing free transport to registered residents, the regional government has approved 45 million euros in subsidies. These funds are intended to be distributed among 109 concessionaires to cover operating deficits and revenue losses, ensuring liquidity and the continuity of services.
