The initiative, part of the municipal public transport digitalization project, has an investment of 457,259 euros, funded by the Diputación de València. These new installations will allow citizens to know the waiting times for buses through digital screens and a future mobile application.
The Councilor for Transport, Jordi Vallés, highlighted the importance of this improvement for the citizens. "These elements will allow citizens to know in real time how long until the bus arrives at their stop," he explained. Vallés also thanked Vice President Natàlia Enguix for managing subsidies.
The project includes the installation of eight digital shelters, 28 information totems, and two reserve totems, in addition to adapting nine existing shelters. The objective is to facilitate the use of the service and reduce waiting times without information.
This modernization is complemented by the upcoming incorporation of two new buses, also funded by the Diputación de València, bringing the total investment for the improvement of urban transport in Ontinyent to over one million euros.
