    Description

     

    ACCGOV TRANSIT is seeking to procure an ITS solution to be implemented on 32 vehicles that comprise the current bus fleet.

The AVL (Automatic Vehicle Location) hardware will identify a vehicle's exact position in real-time, while the CAD (Computer-Aided Dispatch) software will allow operators to monitor the entire fleet, communicate with drivers, and manage service disruptions or detours from our dispatch center.
