Sign of the times for Data Display

A company making interactive signs in Ennistymon, Co Clare, is hoping to change the face of bus transport in New York City with the installation of low-powered signs.

Data Display has developed a unique solar-powered system that can display the length of time until the next bus arrives at a bus stop. The system is currently on trial in Staten Island with the New York City Department of Transportation.

Paul Horan of Data Display said that New York’s public transport services are currently being upgraded and the Co Clare company is hoping to play a major role.
