Fortunately, new technology (GPS) allows real-time tracking where the bus are and home long the bus will come to your stop. Some public transportation service providers already provide this kind of service. You can get the real-time information by web, or text messages or digital signs at some stops. Then you can easily schedule your time more wisely when riding a bus.
To view some example, please visit the following site.
- View real-time bus locations and arrival predictions for Chapel Hill Transit (CHT) routes in North Carolina
- View real-time bus locations for NCSU Wolfline routes in Raleigh, NC
GoTriangle provides trip planner service. it is also a great service for bus riders. You just type your start location and your destination, then it will provide you a list of route options for you to choose. It is very useful when you need to take bus but are not very familiar with bus schedule.
Hopefully, more and more people would take public transportation to help our environment.
