Abstract
Commuters on Bengaluru’s BMTC buses often face two challenges: missing their stops and lacking quick access to safety tools. This paper proposes a Progressive Web Application (PWA) to address both through two key features. Customizable stop alerts notify passengers one stop before their destination via pop-ups and vibrations, reducing the need for constant route-checking. A one-tap SOS widget, accessible from the home screen, instantly shares live location with pre-set emergency contacts. Built on a plug-and-play model, the system can integrate seamlessly into platforms like Namma BMTC or Uber. Future enhancements may include route optimization, real-time tracking, and basic Kannada assistance for newcomers, combining safety, convenience, and cultural relevance. This modular framework aims to make urban mobility more adaptive and commuter-centric.
