The displays also have the functionality to scroll special messages to passengers regarding information on traffic delays, forthcoming roadworks and major events impacting the network. The displays are hardwired into the shelter power supply and data transfer is carried via a 3G network. Figure 199: Bus countdown displays Location The RTI display is usually attached to the underside of the shelter roof at the arrival end. It can also be fitted in a void above the information panel on a Landmark London type shelter model. In a small number of exceptional locations it may be provided as a free-standing unit (FSU), however, at the time of print there is currently a programme underway to upgrade the estate of eight FSUs with single bay narrow roofed ‘info’ shelters.

TfL and Clear Channel have developed the UK’s first interactive bus shelter. Benefits The interactive bus stop addresses the needs of commuters and visitors alike. Piccadilly Circus was chosen for the initial trial because it is one of London’s most popular destinations. Applying in London If the trial proves successful, interactive bus stops could be deployed across much of central London. Implementation A large colour touchscreen was installed in a shelter at Piccadilly Circus in 2014. Rather like a smartphone, the screen can display Tube status, weather forecasts, maps and Mayor’s Cycle Hire Scheme locations. It also provides information on local tourist attractions and walking routes. It has USB charging ports and a free WiFi connection.
