I have "33333" as a contact on my phone. I pick up my phone, dial "50019" (or whatever the stop number is" and it sends me a text within 15 seconds with the next grouping of arrival times sorted by bus number.

GPS should be able to make all of this possible.

This way you can effectively see how late the buses are and you actually have supporting evidence when you complain to the bus driver.

It's one thing if they have real time arrival times, but they don't, so simply make sure the schedule is posted at every stop. Stuff like this is a waste of money.
