Keeping Tabs on Shuttle-UM

Shuttle-UM announced Friday that its shuttle tracking system is now fully operational. Called Shuttle Trac, the system allows for real-time bus arrival information accessible via telephone, the web, a plasma screen in the Union, and bus-shaped monitors located at many bus stops.

Though the system’s inaugural run back in November suffered from serious glitches, the system’s manufacturer has since refined and fixed the technology.

Our own non-scientific observation by the Leonardtown Community Center has shown the system to be fairly accurate with its predictions.
