Schemes - UK - Plan to get city buses to run on time
Glasgow,Scotland,UK -Glasgow Evening Times -Sep 19 2005 :-) IT is the bane of every passenger's life - waiting ages for a bus and then three come at once... But from today a new L$163;30million hi-tech scheme aims to put an end to all that misery.sing a network of radios, satellites and cameras, buses in Glasgow will be tracked to see they are running on schedule... A satellite global positioning system called Streamline was switched on today to cover the Number 62 route from Faifley, Clydebank, to Baillieston with other routes expected to follow... If buses are caught in a traffic jam, it will be detected by sensors on the road and late-running services will be given the green light at traffic signals to make up time.he goal is for every bus to follow its timetable to the minute...
