What’s going on at the bus stop? The impact of Auckland’s real time passenger information system on patrons timespace perceptions

Transport innovations have predominantly been recognised for their power to alter geographic space through time space compression. The emergence of Intelligent Transport Systems provides an interesting new lens through which to investigate individuals’ perceptions and constitution of time and space....

Les innovations dans le domaine des transports sont surtout connues pour leur pouvoir de changer l’espace géographique à travers la contraction de la notion d’’espace-temps. L’émergence de systèmes de transport intelligents nous fournit un nouveau prisme au travers duquel il devient possible d’interroger les perceptions individuelles en la matière. Un de ces systèmes, le système d’informations prévisionnelles en temps réel des passagers (RTPISP) installé actuellement à Auckland, Nouvelle Zélande sert de cadre à cette proposition qui consiste à comprendre comment les expériences de déplacement des passagers peuvent s’en trouver modifiées. Cet article suggère que de telles technologies modifient considérablement la donne. Par le simple fait d’attendre l’arrivée d’un bus ou tout au long du trajet, de nouvelles possibilités émergent, permettant aux usagers de se constituer des nouveaux espaces temporels jusqu’alors inconnus.

description Transport innovations have predominantly been recognised for their power to alter geographic space through time space compression. The emergence of Intelligent Transport Systems provides an interesting new lens through which to investigate individuals’ perceptions and constitution of time and space.

It explores how individuals’ travel experiences are being shaped by interface the RTPISP System provides between the ubiquitous computing background and individuals’ everyday lives. This paper proposes that such technologies are causing more than just the compression of space by time. By embedding the mundane activity of catching the bus in the coded spaces of the RTPISP System new conditions of possibility are emerging allowing these bus patrons to constitute alternative timespaces while waiting for the bus, timespaces which they previously were unable or unwilling to access.
