RSS376 TransLink, the regional transportation authority in Metro Vancouver, Canada, has launched Version 1.0 of its RTTI (real time transit information) system, which includes the long-awaited predicted departure of buses from the stop. This product provides passengers with the exact time a bus will leave a given stop.
The bus location information and predicted departure times at stops comes from the Transit Management and Communication System (TMAC) that INIT provided through Mobile-ITCS and is accessible to TransLink’s web interface through a standardised service interface for real-time information (SIRI). Based on this real time data stream, TransLink has developed its own passenger web GUI.
