Trafi gets gold: Trafi awarded the best Travel Planner for the 2016 Summer Olympic Games

Trafi is officially the best Travel Planner for public transport during the 2016 #OlympicGames chosen by Rio’s @CidadeOlímpica

As part of the preparation for the Olympic Games, the city of Rio de Janeiro knows how important an efficient and effective public transport system is.

To ferry around all the many visitors expected for the 2016 Summer Olympic Games on top of the already the 12 million people living in the metropolitan area, good information about public transportation is an absolute requirement.

For that reason the Cidade Olímpica (Olympic City) created a challenge: which application is the best travel planner to use during the Olympic Games.
