Lähtötaulukko

Lähtötaulukko is a Finnish term that translates to "starting table" or "departure table" in English. It is commonly used in the context of transportation, particularly for public transport schedules. A lähtötaulukko provides information about when a particular vehicle, such as a bus, train, or tram, is scheduled to depart from a specific location.

These tables typically display departure times for various routes or destinations from a given stop or station. They are essential for passengers to plan their journeys and ensure they catch their intended transport. Information found in a lähtötaulukko often includes the departure time, the route number or destination, and sometimes additional details like the final destination of the service or any special notes.

In addition to physical displays at bus stops and train stations, lähtötaulukko information is widely available online through public transport operator websites, mobile applications, and journey planners. These digital versions often offer real-time updates on delays or cancellations, enhancing their usefulness. The concept is fundamental to the efficient operation and utilization of public transportation systems, allowing passengers to navigate their travel with clarity and confidence.
