TransitScreen is an experimental project from the Mobility Lab: Digital screens showing real-time transit arrivals and Capital Bikeshare availability. In real time, the web server queries each transit agency for the arrival predictions for selected stops, then relays the data to the screens.

This project is only possible thanks to open APIs from our transit agencies.
