Planning your next trip using Saint John Transit just got a whole lot easier.
CEO Ian MacKinnon says you can now find up-to-date route information on your phone by using Google Maps.
“If you were to put in the to and from destinations, it’ll tell you what our bus routes, what are bus schedule is, what lines to take,” says MacKinnon.
You even have the option of selecting what time you’ll be leaving or what time you need to arrive at your destination.
MacKinnon says they partnered with NBCC Saint John and worked with a student who was interested in an IT-type project.
“He put it together for us,” he says. “We provided the information required, they did the work, and it was a great experience.”
MacKinnon says the project has been so successful that Apple wants to use the information on their mapping application.
