At smart motors® we have been developing new information screens hand in hand with TMB.
The displays came into service one week ago at 3 stations of L5 for a real trial.
The information is provided by Digital Train®, a software platform that increases the visibility of the train components status.
The displays inform of the trains location, the arrival time and the occupancy.
This can make customers to locate easily to the platform area corresponding to the less occupied cars,
speeding up the boarding of trains and having a more comfortable journey.
By cliking here you will see a video of the screens inauguration.
