Mass Transit for Towns and
Cities
Axion is the first in the world to have developed,
manufactured and put on the market Light Emitting
Diode (LED) Electronic Destination Signs for Mass
Transit. This avant-garde technology was developed
in the Province of Quebec as early as 1994, and
installed on mass transit buses of many great
Canadian cities.
Components of a typical destination sign system
are normally found at the front, rear and side
of transit buses and display the vehicle's route
in a neat and clear fashion. Moreover, the multiple-functionality
of this technology offers a performance and reliability
yet to be equaled on the market while contributing
to minimize the operating and maintenance costs
of a mass transit fleet of vehicles.
