As buses become busier the need the confidence you can get on a bus means some passengers may want to book a seat, and a bus operators needs to understand the demand for journeys to know where to direct resources.
Could being able to book a journey or seat on a bus be one way of solving this double problem.
We are used to being able to book a seat when we make a long distance train or coach journey but not when we make a short bus journey.
What are the options and potential opportunities for the bus industry ?

We are starting a series of webinars at the end of August on data standards.
Data standards are becoming a hot topic in the UK with the introduction of the Bus Open Data System. For the first time in a while some are having to remember what public transport data is all about whilst others are having to find out about them for the first time.
These sessions will run every couple of weeks and cover a different standard each time, the first will provide some background on Transmodel and UK applications.
