It works pretty well, it's not an app just a page, updates bus location every 2 minutes

Translink, I believe?
Edit: Nevermind. Their old app used to be under that name but I can't find it under the iPhone app market either now.

About five years ago a couple of SFU comp students came up with this idea of tracking buses live for a project and asked Translink for permission to proceed. They were denied (by Translink).

They were denied (by Translink). | Reminds me of the movie Synapse. It's about how corps steal ideas from up and coming tech students.
