BUSTRACKER IN MIDLOTHIAN

![]()
This is a state-of-the-art bus information system that collects location readings from GPS equipment on the buses via satellite. At the moment, Lothian Buses is the only operator to have invested in the on-bus equipment, and so Bustracker will only give details of Lothian Buses’ services. We expect to see the system expand to embrace other bus operators in the future. The collected data is processed at the control centre in Edinburgh and is then made available to the public in three different ways:-
- Bustracker pole-mounted units at selected bus stops. These have been a feature of central Edinburgh for some time, and now they are appearing in Midlothian too where there are now forty in use. The units usually display the next two departures for each service, and give the service number, the final destination and the number of minutes until the bus is expected to arrive. A bus display showing “DUE” is expected to arrive within the next two minutes. In the early morning you may see “SERVICE NOT STARTED” – this means that the first bus of the day is not due for more than one hour. After the last bus of the day has left, “SERVICE FINISHED” will be displayed.
- Bustracker on the web – visit www.mybustracker.co.uk and you can check real-time departures at your stop, check bus stop locations and see full bus timetables.
- Bustracker on your mobile – enter http://mobile.mybustracker.co.uk into your phone browser. Highlight and select the “Bus Stop Search” option on the Bustracker mobile homepage. The “Bus Stop Code” entry bar will now appear – enter the 8-digit bus stop code for your bus stop [in Midlothian this is shown on the bus stop flag, or you can find the codes via the main website]. Highlight and select “Departures” and the real-time information for your stop will be displayed – this usually takes around 20 seconds to appear.
