Idea projektu

Recently, Surabaya has provided buses as mass transportation in the city that people would call “Suroboyo Bus”. Uniquely, bus tickets can be purchased by exchanging plastic bottles and cups, and this method were only applied in Surabaya, whereas other cities use money as their currency. However, this noble goal raises new problems, namely the accumulation of plastic garbage in several landfills. Used plastic glasses and bottles deposited by Suroboyo Bus passengers are left offhand without further handling. Other problems such as lack bus information, vandalism and less-friendly disabled facility were also quite concerning. Therefore, this proposed design tries to solve those problems by integrating plastic bottles and cups as a design element. The bus shelter is designed simple yet iconic, with modular construction for easier installation on locations, equipped with built-in technology to notify bus arrival and hidden cameras to monitor security and improper actions.
