Are these the bus shelters of the future?

In an age where technological advancements are becoming a staple in urban infrastructure, the allure of futuristic bus shelters is undeniable.

With sleek designs, integrated digital screens, and solar powered amenities, these shelters promise a glimpse into the future of public transportation. However, as appealing as these high-tech shelters may seem, there are compelling reasons to favour basic and cost-effective bus shelters that protect commuters from the harsher Australian elements over their futuristic counterparts.

Bus shelters provide essential protection from adverse weather conditions, safeguarding commuters in your local government area from damaging wind, sun, and rain.

Recent news articles highlighting the need for adequate bus shelter infrastructure across New South Wales has prompted many councils to explore alternative solutions for supply and installation of this infrastructure.

Securing funding for bus shelter supply and installation poses a significant challenge for local governments. Individual bus shelter installations can cost up to $30,000, excluding ongoing expenses for cleaning and maintenance. Many councils struggle to allocate resources to meet the community's needs in this regard, prompting them to seek partnerships with third-party providers.

Claude Outdoor presents a viable solution for these councils wherein we enter strategic partnerships with local governments operating across every state in Australia.

In exchange for providing bus shelters at no cost to the council, we receive exclusive advertising rights on the bus shelters. Furthermore, we commit to cleaning and maintaining the shelters throughout an agreed-upon contract term to keep these bus shelters to an "as new" standard.

Claude Outdoor has developed a bespoke, durable, and compliant bus shelter design, tailored to withstand Australia's harsh climate. Manufactured locally, these shelters are constructed from aluminium, designed as a kit of parts, vandalism-resistant, and easy to clean and maintain.

Beyond protection from the elements, bus shelters also serve as inclusive spaces for those who are elderly or have mobility issues catering for all patrons and complying with all Australian disability standards.

If the prospect of securing essential bus shelter infrastructure at no cost to the community aligns with your local government's objectives, we invite you to contact us at [email protected] to arrange a follow-up call or visit claudeoutdoor.com.au/partners for further information.
