More Bus Information Boards to Be Installed

Passengers of the Seoul Metro will soon be able to check bus transfer information in subway stations.

The Seoul Metropolitan Government on Sunday announced, "For the convenience of citizens who transfer from subway to bus, we plan to install eight bus information boards in Seoul Station and the Gwanghwamun Station by September of this year. We plan to expand the number of boards in the stations with greater demand for transfers to buses."

The bus information boards will provide real-time traffic information on when the next buses will arrive. In addition, the Seoul Metropolitan Government plans to increase the number of bus information boards installed in bus stops from the current 76 to 168 by the end of this year, and install an additional 350 by next year.
