Screens for bus and coach operators that keep passengers informed.

Timetables, service changes, ticket information and travel notices, in stations, depots and on board.

Bus & coach screen design: Bus station departures. Bus station departures board with service, destination, stand, time and live status. Bus & coach screen design: Next buses from this stop. Single-stop countdown board: stop letter, next buses in minutes and stop details. Bus & coach screen design: Route timetable. Weekday timetable grid for one route: stops down the side, journey times across.

Three of the designs for bus & coach operators, as they'd look on a wall screen.

The challenge

What bus & coach operators are up against.

Diversions and timetable changes happen often, and passengers need to know before they reach the stop.

What the screens need to do

  • Timetables and departures
  • Service changes and diversions
  • Ticket types and offers

Where the screens go

Three screens, three jobs.

Each screen gets its own playlist, so the message fits the spot it's in. Add more whenever you like.

At the station

Departures and service changes.

At the ticket office

Ticket types and offers.

In the depot

Driver notices and safety.

A day on the screens

Schedules do the changing, not you.

An example week for bus & coach operators. Each row is a playlist and when it plays; the screens switch on their own.
