Checking a Journey on Web

summary

The user is initially presented with a route filter on the left and a summary of all the updates on the right.

routeIf the user wants to filter the updates by a particular route he enters the from and to stations and presses Go. He will then be presented with diagram of the route with the stations on either end and the disruptions and boards in between. If the TOC connects to the underground network, underground updates will be connected to either of the station nodes.

The route diagram can contain the following updates depending on how JourneyCheck is configured for the TOC:

  • Engineering Works
  • General Updates – updates that are neither line or service updates, e.g. an update about a station or something that affects the whole of the TOC’s network.
  • Line Updates – an update about a part of the rail network
  • Service Updates – an update about a particular service
  • Departure & Arrival Boards
  • Underground Updates
