Less background traffic on station pages
StationView trims unnecessary search-engine refreshes on UK boards so live pages stay fast for passengers without extra load.
What changed
The site map now lists each station board once (without guessed platform links) and suggests a daily refresh instead of hourly. UK station pages also match other regions by limiting automated crawlers that hammer thousands of unique URLs.
Why it matters
Search engines still find every station, but they no longer trigger as much repeat work in the background—keeping departure boards responsive when you actually open them.
Who benefits
UK passengers opening favourite stations, and anyone sharing board links during busy periods.
