How can our digital displays benefit public sector transport

Public sector transport has come a long way since its inception, and today technology plays a significant role in improving the safety and comfort of passengers and workers alike. One such technological advancement that has transformed the transportation industry is the LED screen. digital displays are increasingly being adopted in public sector transport systems from buses and trains to airports and subways for their numerous benefits.

Digital displays are our area of expertise here at Scanlite, and given our vast experience in manufacturing and installing them, we’re here to explain exactly how our digital displays can benefit public sector transport.

Provide real-time information

Our digital displays can provide passengers with real-time information about arrivals, departures, delays, and any changes in the route. This affords passengers the opportunity to plan their journey accordingly and reduces confusion and anxiety. For example, if a train or bus service is running late, the digital displays will display the new expected arrival time, allowing passengers to adjust their plans accordingly. This ensures that passengers are always kept informed regarding their transport, so they can better plan their decisions regarding their journey.

Improved safety

Our digital displays can also improve safety on public transport. In an emergency situation, such as a fire or potential terror threat, our digital displays can be used to display instructions and information promptly, that can assist passengers in remaining calm while exiting the vehicle in a safe and secure manner. In addition to this, our digital displays can be used to display safety announcements and reminders, such as reminders to wear a seatbelt or to keep the aisle clear. This helps to ensure that passengers are aware of the safety rules and regulations, ultimately helping to prevent accidents.

Dynamic advertising

Our Digital displays can also be used for advertising. Public transport companies can display advertisements on the screens, which helps to generate revenue for both the advertiser and the public body which runs the transport, like TFGM (Transport for Greater Manchester). What’s more, the dynamic nature of our digital displays means that they can also be used to target specific demographics, such as commuters or tourists, and can be updated regularly and easily to keep them relevant.

Increase accessibility

Finally, our digital displays can improve accessibility for passengers with disabilities. For example, the screens can display information in multiple languages, making it easier for non-native speakers to understand. The screens can also be used to provide audio announcements for passengers with hearing impairments. This ensures that all passengers can access the information they need to make their journey safely and comfortably.
