Tahoe Transportation District Gets Real-Time Arrival Information Powered by Swiftly

Tahoe Transportation District (TTD) riders have recently gotten a big upgrade to their travels. Swiftly has partnered with TTD to bring real-time transit predictions to the South Shore region of Lake Tahoe.

As part of this project, GPS trackers have been installed on buses to generate real-time arrival information. This data has now been made accessible to the public in the form of Swiftly’s prediction algorithm, Transitime. With this technology, riders can now access up-to-the-moment bus arrival predictions for routes 50, 53, 23, 19x, 20x, 21x, and seasonal services right from their phone, via Swiftly’s mobile app and website platform.

“We are happy to be able to provide our riders with real-time arrival information,” said George Fink, Transit System Program Manager for the TTD. “Especially for those who rely on transit to get around the region, this is a big step forward. We’re confident this program will make our transit system easier to use and more accessible to residents and visitors alike.”

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
