Travelers can receive real-time passenger information in a variety of ways: audio or visual messages at the bus stop, audio messages over the phone, or information via the internet, SMS and WAP. The bus stop audio and visual messages may automaticaly play at regularly scheduled times or they can be triggered in a number of ways: via a tagged vehicle (i.e. bus) approaching the sign, via a communications link (radio or data connection), by proximity detectors activating when someone approaches the sign or a special key fob being pressed by a visually-impaired person. Travelers may also retrieve real-time passenger information by dialing a telephone line from the comfort of their own home/work, or via a mobile phone as they walk to the bus stop

Explanation:
Could it be the passenger information service offered by French transport group Keolis?
