The program, said LADOT Head of Transit Operations Corinne Ralph, aims to cut down on the problem of “ bunching,” which happens when several buses arrive at a stop at once, followed by a long lag time before the next bus. “We have tried various things over the years including adding staff and checks to make sure the buses were spaced out,” said Ralph. “We are already getting feedback from the public indicating that this is a very useful addition.” Downtown DASH riders can access bus arrival times in one of three ways: by looking online at dtdash.com; by calling (213) 785-3858 and, when prompted, inputting the bus stop number on the bus stop pole; or texting “dtdash ####” to 41411 (with #### standing for the stop number). Meanwhile, Ralph said, bus contractors and LADOT officials will have access to the same information to track vehicles and identify problem areas.
