We broke the news last September that JCDecaux was planning to test touch-screens on bus-shelters in Paris.

According to the Relaxnews press agency, this is now a reality, since two sites in the Opera district (also known as the ‘digital district’) have been equipped.

The new installations “give information about bus lines and timetables, but also supply information about tourist attractions in the area”.

The test will run “for several months”.
