Dawson Creek has become the first community in the North to be added to BC Transit’s NextRide service.
NextRide is an automatic vehicle location technology, which allows customers to view real-time bus locations.
Bus location data is then provided to a number of mobile apps, such as Transit App, to allow customers to track and monitor bus routes and arrival times.
BC Transit hopes to have the new technology installed on all transit systems by the end of the summer.
A pair of installation teams are working to bring the technology to over 300 buses operating on conventional, fixed routes across BC.
NextRide has already been installed on the majority of systems in the southern portions of the province.
