Mосgоrtrаns has allocated 1.385 billion rubles for the development of a system for accurate tracking of vehicle locations in Moscow. As part of the new project, it is planned to install 85,000 stationary devices that will operate via the Bluetooth protocol.
The development includes the creation of a software and hardware complex that will use alternative positioning methods. This is necessary because GPS and GLONASS navigation systems are subject to interference in the capital, especially in important areas, which leads to failures in determining location.
Each device will interact with onboard equipment in buses and cars. The project also provides for the possibility of connecting private transport.
The tender for the project implementation was announced on December 29, 2025, and applications will be accepted until January 19, 2026. The contractor selection will be completed on January 21.
The system will be launched in stages, making it possible to monitor the implementation process. Initially, within 180 days, the contractor must develop and test the software. The next stage involves mass installation of the devices, with installation carried out upon customer requests limited to 200 sites per day.
Each device must comply with strict standards, including the ability to operate autonomously for one year. At the final stage, technical maintenance of the system will be organized for the entire contract term, including round-the-clock support.
The system will handle 100,000 requests per second and simultaneously support at least 50 users. Information security will be ensured through data encryption and protection against unauthorized access.
