Join the team at Number 1 Transit to discover how Mentor Streets, a leading CAD/AVL and passenger information system, keeps operations running smoothly even when an unexpected snowstorm causes major problems. Watch the demo to see how the agency can react immediately to reschedule, reroute and reassign buses to minimize disruption to passengers. At the same time passengers are kept informed of changes to their journey with real-time updates being delivered in multiple ways.
Watch and learn how easy it is for transit riders to get real-time bus location information at any time, and from anywhere, using their mobile phones and a passenger information system. This demo guides you step-by-step through the process of using the Mentor MyRide™ mobile site, from the rider’s perspective.
These days, transit riders are demanding real-time bus information available anytime and from anywhere. A Passenger Information System is a way for transit agencies to meet these needs and provide more effective service as well. Put yourself in the position of a few City Transit riders and see how valuable Passenger Information technology can be.
The key to optimizing vehicle productivity and keeping passengers happy is ensuring buses stay on schedule. Follow Bob, a fixed-route transit operator, as ITS technology works to automate many of his manual tasks for a simplified workload, and on-board schedule adherence alerts help keep him on time. Also see how an ITS solution integrates with technology on the bus, such as LED signs and voice annunciators, to further enhance the transit experience for passengers.
Watch how much easier and efficient schedule creation can be with an all-in-one scheduling software suite. Gregory Osmond gives an in-depth demonstration of Mentor Streets® Schedule, and how it expedites the entire schedule creation process - from bus stop management to rostering/bidding and exporting schedules to Google™ Maps.
Gregory is back to show you how to enhance communication between drivers and dispatchers using Computer-Aided Dispatch and Automatic Vehicle Location (CAD/AVL) technology. Mentor Streets® software integrates CAD/AVL, allowing dispatchers to see where vehicles are on a map and send messages to drivers in real-time. Eliminate the dependence on radios for communication, increase on-time performance and improve customer satisfaction.
Transit Project Manager Gregory Osmond makes an animated appearance to demonstrate the many useful features of Mentor Streets' Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL). As part of the Mentor Streets transit ITS solution, AVL helps transit agencies know the location of all their buses at all times. From finding specific vehicles, to viewing historical routes buses traveled, this demo will show you how AVL keeps dispatchers informed.
