An Android app to spot your bus

MY MTC for a smoother and smarter MTC bus journey !!!


The biggest problem about the city bus journey is not knowing when the bus can reach your stop. There can be many reasons for it like bus-schedule-change/ traffic-jam / rain etc., Unless there is some real time tracking we end up waiting and spending anxious time for buses at bus stops daily. MY MTC  is an initiative which solves this issue by forming a bus community and crowd sourcing current bus locations for MTC buses in Chennai. It is developed keeping in view of the problems faced by the bus commuters.

How MY MTC works:
ITS VERY SIMPLE - When ever you notice a bus during your daily travel, just update in the app. The commuters who needs that bus will find it through the app. Current location of the bus is automatically retrieved through user GPS which prevents wrong updates. Efficient algorithms are written to make this process looks simpler and fast.


Features of My MTC:
•  Only application that can solve the problem of waiting for buses
Bus commuters can track their bus real time through the Spot and Find features in the app
The updated and latest app available in the market
Application can also be used offline for bus information.
Can get the nearest bus stop by retrieving your current location through GPS.
Map view of the bus route and bus stops.
Can get all the buses passing through a stop.
Bus route details like distance, bus fare , number of stops can be got in a click.
and More to Follow Soon ...

​Together we can simplify city bus journey :) 

My MTC mission
                   Our mission is to assist and provide a platform for the bus commuters to have a smooth journey. With a large bus community we get the power of necessary information required for our journey.  


Thanks & Regards

Bus stops @ OMR

                                        OMR is almost a straight highway, taking a bus ride can be smooth except at few junctions like Tidel park and Shollinganallur.Though MTC offers nearly 400 trips a day, buses are often crowded.The hot sun adds to the uneasiness.There are a few AC buses though mostly taken by IT professionals working in software companies situated along the IT corridor.                                         To take these bus rides, commuters have to wait at bus stops situated along the road.There are 23 major bus stops as of now and two routes , one from Adyar to Kelambakkam and the other from Velachery to Kelambakkam.Both these routes meet at SRP tools.
