Compass Travel deploys Omnibus timetable displays in Sussex

Compass Travel has embarked on a project to upgrade its bus stop timetable displays across East and West Sussex.

The initiative is in collaboration with Omnibus, and leverages the supplier’s OmniSTOPdesign solution.

The aim is to boost patronage by offering consistent information at bus stops. The new displays are part of a broader strategy to align with standards set by Surrey’s roadside media, managed by Surrey County Council and Omnibus consultancy. Omnibus says the move will ensure a seamless customer experience across all touchpoints in Compass Travel’s network.

According to Michael Bishop, General Manager at Compass Travel and a board member of ALBUM, rural areas are the focus of the strategy: “In rural areas… roadside timetables are a core part of our strategy in promoting bus services to the public. Presently, our roadside publicity is either inconsistent or missing from stops in parts of East and West Sussex.”

Mr Bishop highlights some of the features of OmniSTOPdesign, which include: Return journey capability, amalgamation of stop numbers into a single display, stop-specific information, QR codes for real-time updates, and a comprehensive database for managing stop locations. “With OmniSTOPdesign, we have confidence that each bus stop will have the right information displayed in a clear, passenger-friendly format,” he adds.

Peter Crichton, Founder of Omnibus, says: “We are delighted to strengthen our relationship with Compass Travel. OmniSTOPdesign not only simplifies the process of developing quality timetable publicity, but it also has bus stop management capabilities so Compass Travel can make informed decisions on the management of at-stop display cases.”

andy burnham tfgm £15.6 billion (1) The funding announced by Chancellor Rachel Reeves today (4 June) has been allocated to several combined mayoral authorities to use on rail, tram, road and bus infrastructure. Transport for Greater Manchester revealed today that part of the £2.5 billion it will receive will go towards making the Bee Network fully battery-electric by 2030. An as-yet undecided portion of that will support a planned investment in 1,000 new zero-emission buses over that period, the mayoral authority said. That is part of plans to build the UK's "first fully integrated, zero-emission public transport system", with trams and trains also set to benefit. Liverpool City Region's already announced BRT system is among the projects to which its £1.6 billion will be allocated. Under those plans - due for realisation by 2028 - a high-speed network will be served by articulated buses which are modelled on the 'Glider' in Belfast. It is due to link Liverpool city centre with John Lennon Airport, and Liverpool FC and Everton FC's respective stadia along three routes. Although the model of bus has not been confirmed, a Van Hool Exqui.City on loan from Belfast was last year used as a demonstrator. That 18m vehicle can accommodate around 30% more passengers than a typical bus and has three sets of double doors. The funding will also go towards buses elsewhere in the city as the region heads towards franchising services by 2027. Liverpool Mayor Steve Rotheram with a 'Glider' which was on loan from Belfast last year - an example of the sort of bus which could serve the new BRT Bus services in the East Midlands region will be boosted by the funding, thanks to the £2 billion handed to it today by the government. Some of that allocation will be used for a rapid transit network on the Trent Arc between Nottingham and Derby. Between the two cities, the Freeport, Infinity Park Investment Zone and Ratcliffe-on-Soar will also benefit from the improved bus services. South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority's newly announced commitment towards bus franchising has been boosted by £350 million in funding as part of that region's allocation. The funding for West Yorkshire will help build new bus stations in Bradford and Wakefield. Likewise, the Tees Valley Mayoral Authority will put its sum towards a new £15 million bus station in Middlesbrough. Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander says: "Today marks a watershed moment on our journey to improving transport across the North and Midlands – opening up access to jobs, growing the economy and driving up quality of life as we deliver our Plan for Change. "For too long, people in the North and Midlands have been locked out of the investment they deserve. With £15.6bn of government investment, we’re giving local leaders the means to drive cities, towns and communities forward, investing in Britain’s renewal so you and your family are better off."
