A Laval, Quebec transit user recently sent us some pictures of the city’s latest campaign to promote its STL Synchro real-time passenger information service (RTPIS), which uses WebTech Wireless’ NextBus technology. The Société de Transport de Laval (STL) has been a leader in the implementation of innovative, user-focused transit technology, and has supported it with ongoing public relations efforts.  

With 80 transit stop digital information signs installed, and schedule information for most routes available via smartphone and the internet, STL Synchro is currently the largest deployment of NextBus in Canada. Other cities include Toronto (TTC), Thunder Bay, Guelph and Banff.

“STL Synchro… Because your time counts”

This great interview on RDI Week-end appeared yesterday on the eve of the official launch of Laval Quebec’s STL Synchro real-time passenger information system. It’s in French, but we hope to have an English transcript available soon.

The official launch is on Tuesday and includes flipping the switch on 80 transit stop digital information signs – the largest number of signs ever installed by a Canadian transit authority. Smartphone and internet portal access is already available. More information at STL’s website.
