As part of its modernisation, the Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation will incorporate the latest GPS-GPRS technology for its Vehicle Tracking System (VTS) to be installed in 3,500 buses.
VTS will not only keep track of the movement of the vehicle but will also help in accident detection and reporting, apart from helping the traffic controllers and managers at different bus stations to ensure effective management of arrivals and departures of buses.
Apart from the VTS, the buses will also have CC cameras as a security feature. ‘’The process of installing VTS is in progress and is expected to be completed in three months. The pilot run will be conducted in September in city buses,’’ Jayanth said. |
