Seems interesting, but it probably won't be on Windows Phone. Also it seems to be for Manchester only at the minute

Certainly in Manchester Stagecoach already seem to make good use of thier GPS tracking which is evident to anyone who follows thier twitter feed but it does seem that there are vehicles/services and even areas where the tracking is unavailable even to depot staff.

Within Merseyside, Stagecoach services, along with all other operators, are shown in real time on the Merseytravel app, when it works. What is really needed is something akin to the TfL ibus system that includes every London operator, but that would cost millions.

Website has now been re-designed. The website does appear to have real-time information for Stagecoach Manchester services and also has been configured for mobile view, so can be used on smartphones and tablets.

Had a look at the mobile site and compared to so other mobile sites, it actually works.
Information on tickets and timetables but I tried the looking for the 10A at several stops but couldn't find anything that was leaving that stop, just running to and from A to B.
Only a quick look like but needs work.
