Nextrip is a service designed to help take the guesswork out of bus arrival and help you to get to your stop at the same time as your bus. Nextrip uses satellite technology to find the specific location of a bus; then sends the estimated arrival time of the bus to a particular stop via cell phone, website or other mobile device.
