[rediff] Taking a cue from cities like New York and London, public transport authorities in Mumbai are planning to equip the city’s iconic BEST buses with bluetooth-enabled services.

Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport Undertaking, the country’s first public bus service provider, said it may soon take up a proposal to install the facility in its 4,027 buses.

The system will help commuters in getting information about routes, stoppages and bus schedule on their cellphones.
