"MyStop represents a significant advancement in our efforts to modernize and improve the public transit experience in our community," said Micah Anthony, director of innovation at CATS. "With real-time bus tracking, users can now better plan their journeys, reduce wait times and make more informed decisions about their transportation needs."
