A study on the improvement of the Bus driver’s User interface

A bus driver performs several different tasks and receives lot of information during the work day. Located on the dashboard is a graphical screen which shows different kind of information to the drivers. This information includes route information and destination sign information. Although there are researches on the occupational health of the Bus drivers, on the driver’s working environment. There are practically no studies on how the Intelligent Transport System helps the bus drivers in performing their daily work. A studied was therefore initiated by Volvo Bus Corporation in the Swedish city of Gothenburg with the aim to increase understanding and knowledge of the information used from the bus driver’s point of view
