Incheon City Begins Development of Standard Design for 'Smart Bus Stops'
Incheon City announced on the 2nd that it plans to develop a standard model for smart bus stops by December.
Smart bus stops are equipped with cooling and heating seats, heating and cooling systems, air purification sterilizers, bus information terminals (BIT), and mobile phone chargers to enhance passenger convenience while waiting for the bus. Currently, they are installed at 15 locations in the city, including 8 sites in Seo-gu and 7 sites in Michuhol-gu on a pilot basis.
The city decided to promote a project to develop a standard design due to the lack of uniformity caused by different designs at each installation agency, as well as issues related to maintenance and operating costs after installation.
Through the project, the city plans to investigate the internal and external conditions of bus stops in Incheon and other local governments, analyze best practices to assess applicability, and prepare design strategies and perspective views of the smart bus stop model.
