One Screen to Rule All Transit
Transit Intelligence Display
A client needed to see buses, trains, ferries, and bikes on a single display with real-time ETAs and service alerts. We built a multi-modal transit dashboard that pulls from 5 different APIs and displays everything beautifully on lobby screens.

Key results and metrics from this project.
The Challenge
Commuters and residents need reliable, real-time information about public transportation to make informed travel decisions. However, transit data is often fragmented across multiple apps and websites, with inconsistent formatting and varying levels of reliability. The client wanted a digital display that could serve as a permanent installation in a building lobby or residential complex, providing at-a-glance transit information for residents and visitors.
The Solution
What we built to solve the challenge.
- Full-screen kiosk-mode display
- Color-coded transit modes with icons
- Countdown timers with delay indicators
- Weather and service alert integration
- Multi-API aggregation with caching
- Fallback handling for API failures
- Configurable location and transit preferences
- WebSocket for real-time updates
- Smart delay predictions based on historical data
- Natural language service alerts
- Route optimization suggestions
- Anomaly detection for service disruptions
