I was commissioned to redesign the official transit map for CT BUS, Constanța’s public transport system. The goal: to provide residents and tourists with a clearer, more intuitive overview of the city’s bus lines—bringing structure, legibility, and visual harmony to a network in need of simplification.

The existing system was cluttered and inconsistent, making it difficult for users to follow routes or plan journeys. To solve this, I analyzed the city’s geography and every active CT BUS route, translating them into a 45-degree grid system that would streamline the layout and improve orientation.
This geometric simplification allowed the lines to follow a more logical, legible path, minimizing overlaps, clarifying directions, and ensuring easier navigation at a glance.

The updated map introduced a new color-coded system for each line—designed for instant recognition and contrast across different media and print conditions.
I also redesigned the entire information panel, which now includes:
• Key route numbers and connections
• Emergency and contact information
• Tourist highlights and city landmarks
The final result is a transit map that functions not only as a wayfinding tool but also as a visual gateway to the city, combining design clarity with practical utility for both locals and visitors.
