  # SG Bus Routes

**Bus route visualisation site built to aid me in an analytical task. 🚍 The feature to enable realtime bus ETAs was only added later on a whim~**



**Interactive map visualisation of bus routes. Selectable origin-destination of bus journey and enables JSON data export.**





Bus stops, bus services and bus routes are called via [LTA's Public API](https://datamall.lta.gov.sg/content/datamall/en.html). Faster retrieval via [Redis](https://redis.com/) caching for in-memory storage. Realtime bus ETAs in Singapore can be displayed based on bus stop selected.
