Delay to Real Time service

THE unveiling of electronic real time displays for bus passengers has been delayed until the summer.

Over 170 bus shelters across Wiltshire were expected to using the Real Time Passenger Information (RTPI) by the spring.

But extensive testing has forced Wiltshire County Council to delay the introduction of the shelters until June.

When up and running the displays will inform passengers in Trowbridge, Westbury and Warminster the expected arrival time of the next bus.

A spokesman for Wiltshire County Council said: "The introduction of real time displays in the spring was an approximate date and we can't be sure of the exact time as they are subject to testing."
