Text-to-Speech Services at LYNX Central Station
Redmon Group deployed our Transit Display system at LYNX Central Station in Downtown Orlando, Florida.
LYNX Tailored Transit Information & Advertising
Published: 04/12/2021
Redmon Group deployed our Transit Display system at LYNX Central Station in Downtown Orlando, Florida. LYNX utilizes the Redmon Transit Display software and Content Management System (CMS) to deliver tailored transit information and advertising to 24 bus bays. Outdoor-rated LCD displays are mounted back-to-back and offer route arrivals, alerts, and ads specific to the destination serving a given bay.
Redmon worked with LYNX transit planners and a general contractor to deploy a hardware solution. This solution would seamlessly integrate into existing station platforms and awnings. Redmon specified and designed an off-the-shelf and custom-designed mounting solution to meet design and architectural requirements. We also deployed our Text-to-Speech ADA capability for the seeing-impaired that help passengers of all abilities access real-time transit information. Our engineers trained staff on updating content within our CMS. Also provided documentation in order for agency staff to train others on the use of the CMS.
