Real Time Public Information Displays

Hamilton’s BUSIT network has around 1,100 bus stops. These stops are served by 20 Hamilton services, with a portion also used by five satellite services which terminate in Hamilton from outer towns such as Cambridge, Raglan and Huntly. Some 2.9 million visits are made to these bus stops each year by passengers on the BUSIT network, with a quarter of all passengers visiting the Transport Centre at the beginning, end or a transition point of their journey.

We need to renew the VFD signs and would like to expand our network of RTPIDs, prioritised by stop hierarchy (e.g. interchange hub, major stop, standard stop).

This is an opportunity to be part of the refresh of important technology within a fast-growing region. There is also an opportunity for the advance purchase of additional displays for implementation in other regions.
