Calgary Transit rolls out timely bus features

A new display inside Calgary Transit buses.

CALGARY- If you’ve ever been stuck waiting for a late bus, you’ll soon have an easy way to find out when it will actually arrive.

Starting next week, some buses will feature on-board audio and visual announcements informing riders what stop they’re at and what the next stop will be.

Breaking news from Canada and around the world sent to your email, as it happens.

It’s all part of testing for Calgary Transit’s new GPS based, real-time bus information system. Within a few months, it will be tested on the entire fleet.

The system will eventually help alert riders when a bus is running behind schedule.

Calgary Transit is asking for riders to provide them with feedback during testing.
