A Unique Platform For Real-Time Public Transport (RTPI) And Wayfinding Digital Signs
PassageWay real-time passenger information (RTPI) smart digital signs support Transport and City Authorities, their suppliers and partners by connecting people, places and communities to the real-time public transport information that surrounds them.
Real Time Passenger Information (RTPI)
PassageWay smart digital signs display real-time data around the availability of local public transport options along with any applicable alerts that may affect the passenger journey. Where suitable, with the prior agreement of the Transport Authority, data from commercial operators may also be included.
Carefully Curated
Each PassageWay sign is carefully curated for a specific location (to within a few meters). Working with Transport Authorities and their agencies we identify the mobility options to highlight and suggest optimum data selections for the best customer experience ..
Customisation
Working with our partners we are able to produce unique digital signage solutions. Incorporating custom maps and wayfinding imagery, bespoke templates/ branding and integrating unique data feeds.
One Platform, Multiple Use Cases
The PassageWay RTPI digital signage platform supports Transport Authorities by enabling the easy creation, distribution, management and maintenance of multi-modal digital signs.
With multiple RTPI templates to meet diverse requirements, PassageWay provides a flexible solution to help Transport Authorities connect places within their community to real-time, local public transport availability.
PassageWay provides Transport Authorities with modern digital signage templates suitable for CIS displays at traditional asset locations such as bus shelters, stations and mobility hubs.
Transport Authorities can also easily distribute PassageWay digital signs for non-asset place-based locations such as schools, hospitals, stadiums, hospitality venues, pop-up events and elsewhere. Plus with QR codes available for each digital sign, customers can easily open a mobile-friendly version on their personal device.
PassageWay RTPI smart digital signs are distributed as unique URLs, requiring just a screen with a modern web browser to display. For hosts no additional hardware is required, whilst for customers there is no registration, login or heavy data download needed.
