FARGO (KFGO/KVRR) — MATBUS riders will now be able to track down the next bus on new technology.
The live bus tracker updates every second, giving riders a choice between looking at a map or arrival times. The display shows all the routes, capacity of the bus, and when it should be arriving at its next stop.
MATBUS hopes, with this technology, riders can navigate easier during their commutes.
“It can help you see how close the bus is to your bus stop. So maybe it’s severe weather maybe the temperature is a little colder or warmer than you’d like, you can wait until the bus is actually near enough before you leave the indoors. So it helps to really manage your time a little bit better, ” said Taaren Haak, Marketing Manager for MATBUS.
MATBUS will release a number to dial or text later this summer at various bus locations around town to give live updates on buses.
