ROCK REGION METRO LAUNCHES METROtrack APP

App Offers Riders Real-Time Arrival Information and Customization Options

Rock Region METRO launches its METROtrack mobile app today, available through the App Store and Google Play. The free app offers riders real-time bus arrival information; live route maps; a stop, route and address search; the ability to mark favorite stops and set reminders for stops; a trip planner; and quick access to maps and schedules, park/bike and ride information, fare and pass information, news and more.

“With the METROtrack app, our riders have up-to-the-minute bus arrival information and the ability to customize the app to easily track their regular stops,” said Jarod Varner, executive director. “We are proud to offer yet another modern convenience to make our riders’ commutes more comfortable and expedient.”

The app launch marks the last implementation phase of the agency’s intelligent transportation system that provides real-time arrival information through a bus stop sign texting system, live maps at rrmetro.org and the METROtrack mobile app.
