RSSThe Israel National Roads Company has begun to install the first electronic signs in interurban bus stations that will provide passengers with real time information about bus arrival times at the station, with plans to deploy thousands of smart signs throughout the country.
The electronic signs, that will commence operations next week in dozens of interurban bus stations, will provide real time information about the arrival times of buses operated by several public transit service providers simultaneously in three languages: Hebrew, Arabic and English. The signs are operated using a smart solar system that harnesses the sun's rays and can operate for 15 consecutive days in total darkness.
The data displayed on the electronic screen is retrieved from an onboard GPS unit that provides information to the control centre about the precise location of the bus at any given moment.
