Content of the news

The publication presents a color background test behind the numbers of bus lines for easier distance differentiation. The project of Mario Evstatiev and Nikolay Alexandrov uses colors from the route map and consultations for accessibility of information.

How is the test organised

In the original is indicated a bus with inventory number 3147 of the Company unit used on several lines. The colors are tailored to the route map of eng. Stoyan Stoyanov. The goal is for passengers, including people with less vision, to easily distinguish numbers from distance. The authors also note the difficulty in stops without a map.

Historical context

The material describes a test in February 2020. Wide implementation is then set according to analysis of results. The publication does not certify the current equipment or today's bus routes.
