The Suez Canal Authority launched a mobile application titled “SC Crossings” as part of the digital transformation plan within the authority's development strategy for the year 2023, said SCA Spokesperson George Safwat in a statement on Sunday.
The new application aims to facilitate movement for the citizens and domestic shipping between the two banks of the canal in the three governorates of Port Said, Ismailia and Suez, he added.
The new app includes a comprehensive database that is being updated around the clock for operating the transit axes, which includes 6 giant tunnels that pass under the canal with two tunnels in each of the three governorates, 5 floating bridges and 9 main ferry points along the canal.
The application has an English version that is characterized by a simple design and an easy-to-use interface, he said.
