Mowasalat joins an international campaign to promote public transport. The campaign was launched by the International Association of Public Transport (UITP) under the slogan, “Grow with public transport”. It offers guidance for decision makers, public transport authorities and transport companies on how to improve public transport and tools to help them implement sustainable mobility solutions in their city or region. “As part of the Grow with Public Transport campaign, Mowasalat works towards raising awareness of the positive impact of more and better public transport. The company also encourages addressing the key areas where action is urgently needed to improve public transport services and boost public transport use worldwide”, said its chairman and managing director Jassim Saif Al Sulaiti. Al Sulaiti was nominated to the post of the UITP Vice President and UITP MENA Chairman, by the executive board members during its general assembly held in Sohar, Oman last February 2013.
