Abstract: The project is about a Real-Time Public Transport Tracking System designed for small cities. It helps improve everyday travel and supports local businesses. People in small cities often find it difficult to get accurate information about bus schedules and arrival times. This system makes it easier for users to track bus locations and view estimated arrival times, making travel more convenient and reducing waiting time. It also helps passengers plan their journeys more effectively and overcome issues caused by unreliable or slow transport systems. Previously, people depended on fixed timetables or manual inquiries, which were often inaccurate and outdated. Existing systems usually provide only basic or static information without real-time updates. The proposed system introduces features such as live bus tracking, estimated time of arrival (ETA), route details, and real-time updates through a web-based application. It also allows transport authorities to monitor bus movement and manage routes more efficiently. The application is designed with a simple and user-friendly interface, enabling users to easily access transport information. By integrating GPS technology and modern web technologies, the system ensures accurate and timely updates. Overall, this project improves the travel experience for passengers, enhances transport efficiency, and supports the development of smart transportation solutions in small cities.
