General Information

This is an easy to use alternative to the TFI Live transport App.

Features

  • Search public bus and train schedules across Ireland for their favorite travel routes.
  • Save favorite transport stops for quick future access.
  • View scheduled and real arrival estimates for upcoming trains and buses. No more wondering when your bus is actually supposed to arrive.
  • Select trips to display current or estimated train or bus positions.

Room for Improvement

  • Integration with Geo SQL will allow searching for nearby stops in a map area, eliminating the need to know local bus and train routes.

Lessons learned

  • Next.JS server components are incompatible with Leaflet.js.
