Next-Generation Visual Messaging Signs
Overview
The Next Generation Visual Messaging Signs Project will upgrade the Visual Message Signs (VMS) at 22 selected Caltrain stations. The VMS communicates to riders critical passenger information such as train arrivals, delays, and station/platform changes. The current VMS signs and their components are obsolete and the related software is no longer supported by vendors. The new signs will have modern features such as color capability, improved resolution, pixel density, improved maintainability, troubleshooting, back-office management, and modular replacement/repair features, increasing the utility for and experience of Caltrain riders.
Stations that will receive the upgraded signs are SF, 22nd Street, Bayshore, San Bruno, Millbrae, Burlingame, San Mateo, Hayward Park, Hillsdale, Belmont, San Carlos, Redwood City, Menlo Park, Palo Alto, California Ave, San Antonio, Mountain View, Sunnyvale, Lawrence, Santa Clara, Diridon, Tamien.
