New Info Boards Light Up Jászai Mari tér – Budapest’s Commuter Scene Gets a Smart Upgrade
If you’ve ever found yourself spinning in circles at a bus stop, desperately trying to guess whether your tram runs from that side of the square or the other one — well, Budapest has good news for you. The Budapest Public Transportation Co. just rolled out brand-new passenger information boards at the Jászai Mari Square terminus, and they’re a game-changer for both locals and tourists.
A Smarter Way to Get Around Budapest
The new signs are part of BKK’s big plan to make Budapest’s public transport not just efficient, but enjoyable. The boards are easier to read, logically placed, and designed to help you get where you want to go without the usual “Wait, where’s my bus?” panic. Whether you’re taking the tram down the scenic Margit Bridge or catching a connecting bus to explore District XIII, these updated boards have got your back.

Small Boards, Big Impact
Each stop now comes with clear codes — a mix of letters and numbers like “A2” or “C5” — that correspond to maps on BKK’s website and app. It’s a bit like giving every bus stop its own nickname, so if there’s a route change or a temporary detour, you’ll instantly know exactly where to go. The result? Less confusion, more time to admire the Danube, and a smoother travel experience across the city.
A Budapest Makeover in Motion
Since 2022, BKK has been quietly redesigning how passengers navigate the city’s huge transit network. The results are already visible across 55 key hubs and terminuses, where nearly 2,000 new boards now help people move through the city like pros. And this is just the beginning — by the end of 2027, around 80 major hubs will be fully upgraded. That means smoother connections, smarter signs, and a city that’s becoming easier to love (and explore) by the week.
So next time you’re heading toward Jászai Mari Square — whether to hop on tram 2 for that Instagram-perfect riverside ride or to grab a coffee before crossing the Margit Bridge — take a moment to notice those new boards. They’re more than just signs; they’re Budapest’s way of saying, “Hey traveler, let’s make getting lost a thing of the past!”
