CTA riders soon can track buses on Web

The CTA is no Mickey Mouse operation, but a Web-based bus-tracking system the agency plans to roll out later this year is something straight out of the Magic Kingdom. Starting this spring, CTA riders will be able to check the real-time status of buses on the No. 20 Madison route via the Internet, and at an automated sign at one stop.
*Why don't we run ads on this screen?!?!

It's part of a pilot program that uses technology already on Walt Disney World's bus fleet -- aimed at giving folks an idea of where buses are located, and how long they'll have to wait for the next one.
