Mayor,

Q: I’ve been looking at the bus schedules online and am confused with the different routes, locations and times. Is there another way that might be easier for me to access this information?

A: Yes, you can download the “TransLoc Rider” app on your smartphone to see bus routes in relation to your current location, as well as track in real-time the location of the bus you’re waiting to catch.

The app automatically identifies the bus stops nearby, and gives you arrival predictions for buses.

You can sign up to receive customizable alerts, as well as your favorite go-to stops and routes. For more information or to download the app, visit http://mauibus.transloc.com or search for TransLoc Rider on the Apple App Store or Google Play.
