"Yelli Iddira?" is a service provided by CL Infotech Pvt Ltd (www.clinf.com) to BMTC commuters to track buses (presently only VOLVO) using on-line GPS data provided by BMTC .
How to use:
Supposing you are in Koramangala, and wish to go to Electronics City. The VOLVO bus route no V356C, connecting Kempe Gowda Bus Station and Electronic City (refer ‘route info’ above), touches Koramangala at Big Bazaar, St John's hospital, Water tank Jn, Kripanidhi College, Madivala PS.
To know the current location of the buses along the route, send an SMS message to 99456 34666 reading ‘Yi V356C U’, where
| |
· Yi stands for ‘Yelli Iddira?’, |
| |
· ‘V356c’ is the route number, |
| |
· ‘U’ stands for ‘up’ (buses heading out of the 'starting station' are |
| |
designated to as ‘up’, and buses heading towards the 'starting |
| |
station' are designated as ‘down’). |
And, within a minute, you will receive a reply stating, for example, “Singasandra; Bangalore Dairy; Maharani’s College”, meaning there are three buses on this route currently, each of them approaching the stops listed, after having left the previous stops. The bus approaching Singasandra is of no use to you now, and, depending on the time at your disposal, you may choose to catch either of the other two buses reaching up to one of the stops in / near Koramangala. |
