More real-time bus information released September 2015

Added: 1 September 2015

PTV  is continuing the roll out of much anticipated real-time bus data to customers with an additional 6 bus routes now available: Routes 526, 527, 548, 549, 550 and 551.

This information will be available via Next 5 on the PTV website and in the latest version of the popular PTV mobile app which includes real-time information for trams, buses and disruption information.

In the PTV mobile apps, real-time information can be accessed via Next 5 and is shown as a countdown timer in minutes, instead of a clock time.

This will add to the growing number of routes where real-time bus information is available to customers, joining the 48 other bus routes, providing huge benefits to customers using the services. Real-time information allows customers to better plan their journey on the network as well as enhances operational management capabilities for PTV and bus operators.

The rollout of real-time bus information is being phased and more real-time bus information will be available in the future.
