The initiative is designed to empower commuters with real-time information on bus arrivals and provide seamless journey planning directly through their smartphones.

By scanning the QR codes installed at designated bus queue shelters, passengers will be directed to a dedicated web page where they can enter their destination and access details such as expected bus arrival times, routes, and schedules. The platform functions as a comprehensive travel information hub, enabling commuters to plan their journeys with greater accuracy and ease.
