Stagecoach hopes to tackle traffic issues with launch of new mobile app
The Stagecoach Bus app offers journey planning and live bus tracking features to passengers. A mobile ticketing feature is also in development.
Stagecoach South’s managing director Edward Hodgson said: ‘Whether you’re a commuter heading to work, a student going to college, a family getting ready for a day out or you’re meeting retired friends, live bus tracking means you have more time to yourself before leaving for the bus stop.

He said: ‘The convenience of the app will hopefully encourage more people to use buses, easing congestion and improving passengers’ experience of travelling.’
