This synthesis documents the state of the practice on the use of electronic passenger information signage using the following five elements: underlying technology, sign technology, characteristics of the information, resources required, and decision process used to determine its use. While agencies seem to be taking full advantage of almost universal access to the Inter-net and high mobile phone ownership rates to provide their information through these media, providing information by means of electronic signs is seen to provide an added benefit to users. It is easier to look at the sign than getting your mobile device, opening up the application, and searching for the information.
