I sometimes wondered why buses on my route often don’t have their live tracking showing on the Transit app. Yesterday I learned that they drop off the tracking if they are 10 minutes late! That’s pretty annoying on a long route where the bus only runs hourly and often gets a bit behind- I still want to know where it is! Thought I’d alert other #Ōtepoti people who don’t know. #BusTracking
@simplicitarian@cloudisland.nzHere’s a screenshot of the message about it - check the alerts on the app. You can look at the ORC website for cancellations etc but I don’t imagine that updates in real time about our bus running 11 minutes late 
Also interesting to note that one reason behind the current bus delays is “more cars on the road”. #TooManyCars 
I’m going to write to the ORC about this one - will update you on any response.
@simplicitarian if it’s more than 10 minutes away it would still be great to know it’s coming!
They must be doing loads of roadworks. I know the buses are skipping the Sawyers Bay stop altogether for the next couple of months.
@heyrochelle Road works AND more cars are behind the delays they say
@simplicitarian more cars? So maybe if they had better public transport, there would be fewer cars & the buses would run to time. That’s circular, but it’s what I choose to believe 
@heyrochelle Yes, there’s certainly some sort of downward spiral happening there
