Transit management systems
The transit management system is a particular coordination that provides accurate
information related to the positioning and the satisfactions safety as well as the security of the
commuters. The transit management system is fundamental in the increasing of the ridership,
thus enhancing the operational efficiency and reducing the disruptions in the service. The
passengers have the right to utilize this kind of information at home, work or a transportation
center, with various technologies while commuting. These certain information are general
information, maps, Scheduled information, operation information (Festag 2014). One
significant example of the transit management system is the Automatic Vehicle Location
(AVL) technology, which gives the facility of tracking down the vehicle in terms of vehicular
tracking. The AVL system also facilitates the imparting of vital information concerning the
real time or live positioning of a vehicle. This also includes the imparting of information to
the commuters to keep a check on the schedule dedication and location of the transit bound
vehicles (Binjammaz, Al-Bayatti and Al-Hargan 2013).
