Abstract
People uses transport to move from one location to another. Mode of transports includes air, rail, road, water, cable, pipeline and space. Public transport remains the primary mode of transport for most of the countries and India’s public transport systems are among the most heavily used in the world. For personal use a bus is of advantage as it is great way to save money. Buses are also famed for being late. The people need to wait long time to have bus, which is waste their time. This paper proposes the implementation of real time accurate bus arrival information system. The system focuses upon real-time bus operations information which includes the current location of bus and estimated arrival time at the next stop, and distributes this information to the public in an effort to reduce passenger waiting time. GPS is fixed inside the bus. It helps to monitoring the bus route continuously using latitude and longitude via Google maps. Moreover it helps to find out the exact arrival time of the bus very quickly. It is Global Positioning System (GPS) and Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) combined modern tracking system for exact bus arrival time and location using mobile phones.
