Transportation in Havana

For those who rely on public transportation in Havana, getting from one place to another amid the current crisis can be a nightmare. Therefore, to facilitate access to updated information on routes and schedules, a mobile app (application) was developed this year.

This is Urbanos, an app that provides data on the performance of public transport. Urbanos is the result of joint work between the Geomix Agency of Geocuba Business Group, a company linked to the Revolutionary Armed Forces, and the Cuban capital's Department of Transportation.

Urbanos can now be downloaded from the Apklis site, Cuba App Repository or its Telegram channel. For now it is only available in Havana, but it is expected to be expanded to other provinces.
