Abstract: Public transport systems in small cities face problems due to the unavailability of real-time tracking and communicating systems. This paper proposes a real-time public transport tracking system that utilizes GPS technology and a cloud backend for real-time bus tracking and alerting. The proposed system is implemented as a cross-platform mobile application for passengers, administrators, and drivers. The proposed system is efficient in terms of time and cost. The proposed system is implemented and tested, and the results show that it is accurate and efficient in terms of time. The proposed system is cost-effective for small cities.
