look up “transit usabilty” and then see if bus advertising benches are there for the public or are just a hindrance to the transportation system.

In Oakland, much of the adspace on benches is not purchased. The company that places the ads uses generic filler when there is no ad. The filler ads either promote bench advertising as a concept, display insipid messages about recycling, or a completely generic “Welcome to Our City” which could be dropped into any bench in any city. Primarily these filler ads and out of date ads were those that were replaced.

Was the adspace paid for? or are they covering up ads that paid to be there?
