Teleste is to provide smart display technologies in Sweden which it says are designed to deliver dynamic information across public transport.

Teleste claims that the technologies will help public transport operator Storstockholms Lokal Trafik (SL) improve journeys for passengers travelling by metro, buses, commuter trains and local trains.

The solutions include a 55-inch touch screen information pillar for delivering travel planner services and weather information as well as platform and multiline displays with integrated diagnostics.

The deal extends an agreement in which Teleste began providing LED and LCD information displays to SL’s fleet stations and platforms in 2014.
