System and method for real time bus selection arrangement

A computer readable medium tangibly encoded with instructions for performing a method, comprising:

• receiving location information from a user, the location information comprising an origin and a destination;
• determining, based at least on the location information, bus data for at least one bus, wherein the bus data comprises at least a portion of a bus route and an approximate location of the at least one bus along the bus route at a time of said determination;
• and
• sending the bus data to a device of the user to facilitate visible display to the user.

A system, comprising:

• a plurality of processors;
• a detection engine implemented on one of the plurality of said processors for receiving location information from a user, the location information comprising an origin and a destination;
• a bus information engine implemented on one of the plurality of said processors for facilitating collecting of bus data for at least one bus, the bus data comprising at least a portion of a bus route and an approximate location of the at least one bus along the bus route at a time said collection;
• a correlation engine implemented on one of the plurality of processors for correlating the location information and the bus data to produce an optimal bus selection;
• and
• a transmission engine implemented on one of the plurality of processors for facilitating transmitting of the optimal bus selection to the user.
