Best Bus Schedule

Any dedicated bus rider will tell you that trying to figure out a printed bus schedule is a literal pain in the neck: By the time you've added the estimated minutes between your stop and the timed stop notated on the schedule, you've already missed the bus you needed to catch minutes ago. Or something like that. But RTD's new service takes the guesswork out of getting there on time: It's a real-time voice-recognition phone service that traces your requested information to the exact stop and scheduled run you need. RTD says Denver's system is a national first, and word is it actually works.
