What the Linz board adds
Linz-inspired display designs
Choose an LED or LCD presentation shaped around Linz stop-display proportions, while keeping the screen free of operator logos.
Two-hour next-departure window
See upcoming departures up to two hours ahead—especially useful for less frequent evening and weekend services.
Station-level service information
Relevant additional information can remain attached to the board instead of being reduced to an unexplained empty departure list.
Line disruption alerts
Select supported LINZ AG lines to receive optional notifications when a disruption begins or ends.
Useful Linz setup choices
Filter a shared corridor by destination
Several tram or bus lines may share central stops. Keep the common stop but filter destinations when only one branch gets you home.
Use the longer window selectively
A two-hour preview is helpful off-peak, but a large widget still has limited rows. Prioritise the lines you can actually take instead of turning it into a compressed timetable.
Separate LINZ AG from regional transport
Search results and geographic proximity can expose nearby operators, but the live board described here is specifically the LINZ AG integration. That boundary prevents an unsupported regional journey from looking live.
Linz coverage boundaries
- The live integration is for LINZ AG LINIEN. ÖBB, OÖVV regional buses and other Upper Austrian operators are not automatically included.
- Updates are not continuous. Their frequency depends on LINZ AG data availability and when iOS allows the widget to refresh.
- The 120-minute look-ahead is a maximum window, not a guarantee that two hours of service are available at every stop.
- Additional information from the provider may concern a wider area than one platform and can be delayed or incomplete.
- PT Widgets is independent and is not an official LINZ AG product or operator channel.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does the Linz widget include ÖBB trains?
Not through the LINZ AG integration. The page covers LINZ AG LINIEN live departures; national rail and other regional operators require their own supported data integration.
How far ahead are Linz departures loaded?
Departures can be shown up to 120 minutes ahead, depending on what LINZ AG provides for the selected stop.
Can PT Widgets alert me about LINZ AG disruptions?
Yes. You can enable alerts for supported LINZ AG lines when the operator provides the relevant disruption information.
