March 08, Colombo (LNW): Transport, Highways, and Mass Media Minister Dr. Bandula Gunawardhana inaugurated a state-of-the-art digital customer information screen at the Colombo Fort railway station premises yesterday. The newly commissioned screens aim to provide commuters with real-time information on train arrival and departure times, delays, platform numbers, route maps, and service disruptions.
Two main digital screens, strategically placed near the main entrance of the station, now offer passengers easy access to essential train schedule details. This initiative is a collaborative effort with the involvement of a private advertising agency, emphasizing a public-private partnership for improved passenger services.
Among those present at the commissioning ceremony were Railways General Manager H.M.K.W. Bandara, Deputy General Managers, and Head of Media Hut Kaminda Malaviarachchi. The introduction of these digital information screens marks a significant step towards enhancing the overall commuter experience at the Colombo Fort railway station.
