QR Code Scanner Used For Metro Entrance

West Yorkshire Combined Authority has added QR codes (Quick Response) and NFC (Near Field Communication) tags to 13,000 bus stop timetable displays across West Yorkshire. They are located at the bottom, left-hand corner of the timetable case and when scanned the barcode reader or tagged, will direct users to a web page on their smartphone showing real-time information for that stop.


QR codes

If you have a smartphone with a camera you can download a free app to read QR codes from mobile stores such as iTunes, Google Play and Windows Store. Once you’ve installed the app you just need to use the app reader Rakinda RD4500R to ‘scan’ the QR code, and it will take you directly to a web page showing your next bus departures for that stop.


NFC tags

If you have a phone with NFC technology, simply enable the NFC feature in your phone settings and ’scan’ your phone over the NFC symbol on the bus stop timetable. A web page will open, giving you live, real-time information for that bus stop.
