Our customer has been in business for more than a century, creating and printing consolidated bus timetable books for all major bus companies in the United States and Canada. They needed to replace outdated DOS-based software with a modern solution for updating timetables. They also sought to expand their business by making their timetables available online for the first time.
Infinite’s first task was to review the hard-copy timetables and design a solution that would work on the web. All the intricacies of bus timetabling such as route connections, frequent schedule changes and exceptions – buses running only on certain days – had to be taken into account.
With over sixty bus companies and more than one thousand schedules servicing almost ten thousand towns and cities, the data storage and retrieval processes had to be designed and built for optimal performance. The public user interface was also a major factor in the success of this project.
Bus timetables are traditionally difficult to read, so the opportunity was available for Infinite to display timetable information in a format that could be understood by both regular bus riders and first-time users of the application. Reaching out to a new group of customers that had not previously thought of traveling by bus was a major goal of the project.
Infinite provided the client with a brand new website built on the DotNetNuke Content Management System (CMS) platform.
