Welcome To MTA Bus Time!
MTA Bus Time is a real-time bus tracking service that started out as a pilot on the B63 in Brooklyn and has been expanded to all bus routes in Staten Island, the M34 and M34A in Manhattan, and the B61 in Brooklyn.
GPS hardware wirelessly transmits bus locations to MTA Bus Time so you can use it to look up upcoming arrivals for your bus stop.
Click it. Scan it. Text it. Instead of waiting for the bus, now you can meet it.
Here’s how to connect with MTA Bus Time:
- Desktop Web: from an internet-enabled desktop computer or laptop.
- Mobile Web (and Text-only): from an Internet-enabled smartphone* such as an Android, iPhone, or BlackBerry. Also can be used as an accessibility-friendly text-only desktop website.
- SMS/Text Message: by sending and receiving text messages from your cell phone*.
*Note: Bus Time is free to use but your mobile carrier charges may apply.
