ABSTRACT:
The installation is designed to inform users of a bus network about waiting times for buses at stops in the network. An installation comprises a central station suitable for transmitting radio signals about the real instantaneous positions of the buses, and portable receiver appliances (1) suitable for displaying bus waiting times on screens (4). Each appliance can also serve as a ticket for travel purposes, being provided, for this purpose, with means (10) containing "validity" data (e.g. corresponding to a sum of money or to an expiry date) that can be checked remotely by "ticket-stamper" means (9) and that is also remotely "renewable" from the central station.
