Growth in the west
New residential areas around Gachibowli, Kondapur and the Outer Ring Road mean longer routes with more stops. ETA per stop keeps each parent informed without calls to the school.
Why Hyderabad is different
Local roads, local problems.
Office-hour traffic
School pickup times overlap with traffic into HITEC City and the financial district. Live ETA accounts for the day's actual traffic.
Monsoon showers
Heavy rain can cause waterlogging on some roads during the monsoon. The transport desk sees delays as they happen and parents are told before they start waiting.

FAQ
School bus tracking in Hyderabad: common questions
How do parents know their child has boarded?
Each student taps an RFID card when boarding and getting off. Parents get an instant alert with the time and stop.
What happens if a child does not get off at school?
At the end of each trip, the transport desk is alerted if any student has not tapped off, so the bus can be checked straight away.
Do school buses in Telangana need AIS-140 GPS devices?
India's central motor vehicle rules require public service vehicles to be fitted with an AIS-140 vehicle location tracking device and emergency button, and many states apply this to school buses. State notification dates and enforcement vary, so check with your RTO. CatchIt works with any certified AIS-140 device, or can supply its own.
