25	25	While good GPS signals can be obtained for the B63 route and the routes in Staten Island, it was important to demonstrate that this approach would work in all of New York City.

40	40	Since OneBusAway is {{html}}<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-source_software">Open Source software</a>{{/html}}, the MTA is able to use it free of charge. Bus Time required a number of improvements and customizations to OneBusAway, for which the MTA partnered with {{html}}<a href="https://transportation.openplans.org/">OpenPlans</a>{{/html}} for the pilot, and with both OpenPlans and {{html}}<a href="https://camsys.com/srv_it_overview.htm">Cambridge Systematics</a>{{/html}} for the rollout. All of these improvements have been contributed back to the OneBusAway project, and are now publicly available and free for any other developer or transit agency to use.
