Problem
Many stop names map to multiple representative stop IDs/platforms. The UI currently presents arrivals as if one station name has one unified stop surface, which can hide routes or make arrivals feel inconsistent.
Product design direction
Introduce a clear platform/direction model in the stop arrival experience:
- Show the selected stop name prominently.
- If multiple platforms/directions exist, expose a segmented control or compact tabs.
- Label each group with useful human language, such as direction, destination, or platform context.
- Preserve a combined view only if it clearly communicates that results are merged.
Acceptance criteria
Senior design advice
Transit riders are often making decisions under time pressure. Direction ambiguity is more damaging than visual clutter, so prefer a slightly denser but explicit structure over a simplified view that hides context.
