Abstract: An electronic distribution apparatus for distributing traffic and transit information is provided. The central feature of the system is an application that allows both automated and direct input of information related to traffic and transit into at least one structured database and distribution of information specific to an individual from that database via electronic distribution. Specifically, a user can indicate a personal preference for customized information about a particular section of town and a particular transit route, and a time for daily delivery and an electronic device for reception of the customized traffic and transit information. Transit information can refer to information about buses and/or trains, including on-time performance gathered from systems that utilize global positioning satellite systems to track the movements of transit vehicles.
