R-Line Goes Live with Real-Time GPS Reporting

The R-Line circulator bus in downtown Raleigh has gone live with their exact location data of each bus. The full website shows both buses’ locations on the fill R-Line route while the mobile version gives you the basics.

A link to the R-Line’s status page will live in the “Maps” section over to the right, and in the Mobile Tools, for easy access while you’re out and about.

  This is awesome! Now I can just sit in my condo and watch its progress online instead of standing on the corner and wondering when the bus will arrive. This is great news for those of us who live DT and use the RLine.

  I’ll have an app for Android ready this weekend. Keep an eye on the Market.

  It’s in the market. Search for R-Line if interested. Here’s a link:

  This is a great idea. When I was in college, our school set up a similar real-time system, which was extremely helpful when planning travel times. Whether you are headed to class, work or the grocery store, it’s important to know when your bus is running early, late or right on time.
