Smart mobility and transport concepts play a decisive role in shaping liveable cities and a sustainable future. I am absolutely convinced that we will further expand our leading position in providing cities and companies with our world class solutions.”

The transaction, which is subject to regulatory approvals, is scheduled to complete by the end of 2021. The parties have agreed not to disclose the purchase price.
