CTA Unveils Real-Time Bus and Train Tracking Tools

Stay Informed with Bus Tracker and Train Tracker

Know When Your Ride is Coming

The Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) has launched two new tools to help riders plan their commutes more efficiently: Bus Tracker and Train Tracker. These tools provide real-time information on bus and train arrivals, allowing riders to see exactly when their ride is expected to arrive.

Bus Tracker uses GPS devices to report bus location data back to CTA servers. This data is then displayed on the Bus Tracker website and mobile app, allowing riders to see the location of their bus in real-time. Train Tracker uses similar technology to provide estimated arrival times for trains.

Both Bus Tracker and Train Tracker are available on the CTA website and mobile app. Riders can simply enter their bus stop or train station and see the estimated arrival time for their next ride. The tools also allow riders to set up alerts that will notify them when their bus or train is approaching.

Conclusion

The CTA's Bus Tracker and Train Tracker tools are a valuable resource for riders who want to stay informed about the status of their ride. With these tools, riders can say goodbye to waiting for buses or trains in the dark and instead plan their commutes with confidence.
