## Nearby stops and arrival predictions

In a January 27, 2026 story about student transport in Nova Friburgo, A Voz da Serra described the expansion of Partiu's online lookup. According to the article, passengers could check the bus location, the estimated arrival and its status relative to the scheduled time.

The story gave `etafriburgo.merustracker.com.br/consultapassageiro` and reported that the phone's geolocation identified up to ten nearby stops. It also noted that the system was under continuous improvement. These details correspond to the moment of the story.

## From the boarding stop to trip information

Organizing the lookup around a stop brings operational data closer to the passenger's question: which bus serves this place and when will it arrive? For this experience to be useful, the vehicle position must be tied to the line and the stops along the route.

An arrival estimate is different from a fixed scheduled time. Reading both together gives context for planning boarding, without turning the prediction into a commitment to punctuality.

## Passenger information in Merus

The address cited ties the described feature to the Merus Tracker infrastructure. The story's main subject was the transition of student cards; the mention of the online lookup does not establish that Merus administers the free-fare programs or issues the cards.
