ACT Chief Minister and Minister for Territory and Municipal Services Katy Gallagher recently announced that Trapeze Austrics Pty Ltd has been selected as the preferred supplier to design, supply and install ACTION’s real time passenger information system. The Chief Minister explained that the new system will be known as NXTBUS and will track ACTION buses and provide instant information to passengers in relation to their current location and their estimated arrival time at the next stop.
“Canberrans will, for the first time, have access to real time arrival information for ACTION bus services. Arrival times will be available via digital displays installed at Woden, Civic, Belconnen and Tuggeranong bus stations, the internet, mobile phones/tablets, touch screen displays and on-bus visual displays,” the Chief Minister commented.
