New Live Bus Tracking Tools to Help Passengers Plan Journeys

Glad to see today that Google Maps will now show the live location of buses in England after an agreement with the Department for Transport, allowing people to more easily plan their journeys.

Travelling by bus in our area is too often made difficult by a lack of information, particularly for those without smartphones. That’s why I am campaigning to improve signage and displays at bus stops, and I hosted an event on this earlier in the year (https://www.facebook.com/reel/1593733938515806).

As well as Google Maps, you can also see the live location of local buses here:
