rotjohns Posted November 1, 2021 Report Posted November 1, 2021 The tracker is acting a little wonky so far this morning. Route 208 isn't showing any bus numbers listed, but it will show the arrival/departure times. Same with other routes. Quote
andrethebusman Posted November 17, 2021 Report Posted November 17, 2021 Ever notice on the Pace interactive map if you click on a route one of the details it gives you is date the route started? Neat detail that Pace has kept up since 1975! 1 Quote
Erin Mishkin Jr. Posted December 24, 2021 Report Posted December 24, 2021 Bus tracker won’t show buses on map and labels all buses as “scheduled” on departure times 1 Quote

The app is never correct. Have you thought about putting the real time on the app instead of having people stand on the corner for a half hour or more. This is extreme;y frustrating especially in very hot or cold days. This is a better thread for your question. I'm not exactly sure what app you use to track Pace buses. On my Ventra App, it lists the estimated arrival times for the routes nearest me, be it CTA or Pace. Even so, there are times when buses are supposed to arrive and don't. Then there are the ghost buses. My recommendation is to download the 381 schedule. When you are ready to travel, check the Ventra App or whatever you use to track that particular bus. You can also call SW Division at the Lost and Found number on the schedule. Quote

This is extreme;y frustrating especially in very hot or cold days. In addition to what @artthouwill said, it isn't clear to me what your complaint is. The term "ghost bus," as used in this forum, means a bus on the route that does not register on the tracker, but it seems like you are complaining about buses that are not on the road at all. The version with bus times basically just use estimates or scheduled times. I usually use a map, which indicates that there is only one bus in the middle of the route. That would indicate to me that at least the buses are bunched, or one of the two problems I noted above occurred. But if I were waiting for a bus at Cicero, I would stay inside until the bus was at Central. I would contact Pace customer service if you think the route doesn't have enough buses to maintain the 20-minute interval. Quote
MetroShadow Posted July 15, 2022 Report Posted July 15, 2022 Ghost buses in your case @mary faheyaren't applicable. They're missed trips that should've been wiped from the arrival boards and bus tracker Service delivery is only as good as available drivers on hand; and if the last 850 days have dictated nationwide, very few agencies are at full strength. Hopefully that'll change soon. Quote

Hopefully that'll change soon. Undoubtedly the case. My analysis of the schedule at the time I posted was a minimum of 5 buses, not counting layovers, and only 4 buses with 3 at or near the terminals doesn't hack it. Quote

Webwatch now shows 6 buses. Quote
Busjack Posted November 26, 2023 Report Posted November 26, 2023 Speaking on whether Pace Bus Tracker shows ghost buses, here's a converse I hadn't seen before: Quote

Yes I did, but since you implied the problem was on my end, I used Chrome after Firefox. It did not come up on Firefox, did come up on Chrome. Strange! Quote

Erin Mishkin Jr. Posted May 2 Report Posted May 2 The bus tracker map is not working for phones users (using Google or Bing maps, not counting users on bigger devices using multi route map). I have to use trans see which haven’t had a lot of features yet only to use the map and arrivals for what time the bus comes which also works on the site but not the google or Bing maps Quote

But I don't care about Bing. Quote
Busjack Posted May 4 Report Posted May 4 Checking out the above. Pace Bus Tracker is now branded Vontas, but both Vontas and Trapeze are Modaxo. Quote
