Features
|
|
One of the standout features of the Square Post Bus Shelters is the use of 8 mm safety glass for both the rear and side cladding. This glass is not only strong but also provides clear visibility, enhancing the safety and comfort of the passengers. The cladding is attached using a sophisticated pinch-grip system made from Zamak alloy with a brushed finish, ensuring a secure fit and a modern appearance. Our bus shelters are equipped with a timetable display case that measures 750 x 550 mm, capable of displaying four A4 sheets, and is constructed from anodised aluminium. This feature ensures that passengers have access to up-to-date and clearly visible schedule information. For additional functionality, the shelters can be fitted with advertising spaces.
