For parents with smartphones, the location of their children’s school bus is now just a click away.
Versatrans “My Stop” application informs parents where the bus is at all times and also sends the estimated time of arrival at their child’s bus stop right to the phone. To access the system, parents enter their child’s student number as a user name and then repeat the number for the password. School administrators can push a notification out to parents when necessary and it will automatically send a notification whenever the bus leaves its origin more than 15 minutes late.
The app can be accessed through Google Play Store for Android or the App Store for iPhone. To receive notifications on the smartphone, users must turns on Notifications and select Delayed Bus.
