About

Passio GO UC

Features
Read full description

With Passio GO you have the ability to see real time bus locations, schedules, and ETA. This is available for select agencies and different agencies choose to show or not show the schedules, but you can always see where the buses are and on which routes. As an operator of a system that moves people (transit buses, shuttles, vans, etc.), you need to count them and track them. Passio applications quickly and seemlessly track your vehicles and easily count passengers tagging them with GPS coordinates and time/day as they enter and exit, including different passenger types or groups. N.B. You can run Passio GO without any registration, use for free. Please contact us at: sales@passiotech.com to setup a Passio Account to operate your own bus system.
