Gasgoo.com (Shanghai February 16) - Cities across the country are clamping down on unauthorized and illegal use of government and public vehicles. Keeping in pace with the changes, Shanghai Bashi Industrial Group, in charge of the city's public bus system, revealed yesterday that they would be expanding installation of GPS systems on their buses in a bid to keep speeding down, the Shanghai Morning Post reported.
The systems, which have been undergoing testing on two of the city's bus lines, will be expanded to 570 vehicles operating on 24 lines, covering routes on the outskirts of Shanghai to the city center. Shanghai is also currently in the process of completing a mass public vehicle data-collection program. When completed, the program promises to offer real-time logistical information for over 15,000 vehicles.
