AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This bus stop comes from the Twente region, the "Gemeentehuis" stop in the village of Diepenheim for line 95 toward Borculo. Implemented by the former public transport company Syntus. This stop was in zone 4436. Today the line 95 takes a different route and there is no longer a "Gemeentehuis" stop in Diepenheim.

Ideal for collectors, decoration in a mancave, or reuse as a bus stop sign.

The sign shows signs of exposure to the open air, but it is still in reasonable condition.

Besides a bus stop, this model sign was also used as a tram stop and even to indicate the stopping places of the mobile library. These yellow stop signs, also known as Burec signs, have been in use since the 1970s. To this day, this type of bus stop is still used, although the yellow appearance, which was basically the standard color, is now fading away.

This modular bus stop was designed in the late 1960s by the firm Burec, which stands for bus advertising, commissioned by the Haarlem transport company NZH. In the 1970s, this type of sign grew into a national standard.
