"The use of intelligent electronic bus stops has made our travel more convenient. I like this people's livelihood project in our great Liaocheng!" Talking about the "new" intelligent electronic bus stops, Ms. Liu Yingxin gave a thumbs up. She said that the previous stops were too simple in function and she was often like a headless fly, afraid of missing the bus. Now, the bus arrival information and the passengers on the bus are all clear at a glance, which is very convenient.

Intelligent bus electronic signs are one of the important applications for citizens' travel, and are also a key step in the transformation of smart cities and smart transportation. The 2022 municipal government work report mentioned that Liaocheng will install 30 intelligent bus electronic signs. On October 19, Dazhong.com Poster News reporter learned from Liaocheng Bus Group that 30 sets of Dongchang Road intelligent electronic signs and 2 sets of touch screen intelligent electronic signs at the railway station have been put into use, exceeding the annual task.

The reporter visited several stations along Dongchang Road, and the installation of intelligent bus electronic signs was well received by the citizens. "The left side of the screen shows which buses pass by, and the middle shows the starting and ending stations of the buses, as well as the location of the buses on the road and how many more stations are left." At the Liaocheng No. 3 Middle School station, Mr. Yang introduced the application of intelligent bus electronic signs to the reporter with great interest, "Look at the vehicle logo above, green represents comfortable carriages, yellow represents moderate, and red represents crowded, so you can see the situation of the vehicles and people at a glance."

At Liaocheng Railway Station, the reporter also experienced the use of two sets of touch screen intelligent electronic bus stops. In addition to the real-time bus route information, the electronic bus stops can also check routes, tourist attractions, and transfers. Clicking on the tourist attraction recommendation module, Liaocheng's popular attractions are all available, and there are even exclusive introductions to each attraction, which is very friendly to foreign tourists.

"The construction of intelligent electronic bus stops has solved the problem that the elderly, primary and secondary school students, and foreign tourists have difficulty using the 'Shuichengtong E-travel' mobile APP to inquire about vehicle arrival information. It is another convenient measure to accurately serve the travel of Liaocheng citizens and improve their sense of happiness." Li Xiangzhou, director of the Energy Development Department of the Public Transport Management Development and Technology Application Center of Liaocheng Public Transport Group, said that Liaocheng Public Transport Group is currently planning to build the second phase of the intelligent electronic bus stop project along the road, and will continue to be committed to the construction and research and development of smart bus projects, with a series of urban public transportation digital transformation and reform results to help Liaocheng's smart city construction, so that the people can truly enjoy the changes that the times have brought to their lives.
