Bus stop Universum - a station of being

At the University City in Umeå, a radically new prototype of a bus station has just been realised, as a model for easy replication in Sweden as well as in other countries. Intending to make public transport more attractive, the station uses smart technologies and new materials to transform usually wasted waiting time into quality time; it invites citizens to relax and ‘just be’ before heading home after a busy day of work.
