CTA-- Bus Tracker

Winner of the Chicago Innovation Awards 2010

With CTA's Bus Tracker system, a CTA commuter can go online and set up email or text alerts for specific times of the day and have bus arrival predictions automatically sent on a daily basis. Transit users looking to go to a specific destination can plan their CTA trip using real-time information at ctabustracker.com and eliminate their wait-time because they know exactly when the bus will arrive at their stop. People can easily walk up to a bus stop, send a text message using a number provided on the bus stop sign and find out how long they will have to wait before the bus will come.
