Nagpur City Bus Service: Real-Time Information on Public Transportation
Nagpur City Bus Service is a mobile app designed to encourage the public to use public transportation by providing real-time information. This initiative by Nagpur Smart and Sustainable City Development Corporation Limited (NSSCDCL) is part of its efforts to modernize its services and implement Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) to strengthen service delivery to commuters. The app enables users to track the exact location of buses using GPS devices installed in city buses and displays the expected time of arrival (ETA) on various bus shelters in the city.
The app has a user-friendly interface and offers several features, including a trip planner that allows users to search for available buses from one location to another, providing route information with bus numbers and timings. Users can also search for available buses using the route number or locate the nearest bus stops. The app also has an estimated fare indicator for selected numbers of commuters, available in three languages - English, Marathi, and Hindi. In addition, the app includes an SOS trigger facility for Fire, Ambulance, and Police.
Overall, Nagpur City Bus Service is an excellent initiative that provides real-time information on public transportation, making it easier for commuters to plan their trips and travel efficiently.
