Arriva has launched a web-based journey planner called ‘My journey’ that will enable passengers to familiarise themselves with the new bus routes and plan in advance the journeys that they are interested in taking, as the population in Malta and Gozo prepare for the start of Arriva operations on 3 July, 2011.

Keith Bastow, Managing Director of Arriva in Malta, said: “We are committed to giving our prospective customers every assistance they may need to get to know how to arrive at their chosen destination. Thanks to the ‘My journey’ feature on www.arriva.com.mt you can find out not only what route you will need to take but also the estimated travel time to get to your intended destination.”

There is a choice of planning your journey either by selecting the town/village you want to travel to, or by using the new route number,

For full route and times information, web users can download a route map and timetable relevant for the routes or send an e-mail to [email protected] Those without internet access can contact Arriva’s Customer Care Centre on 2122 2000 for guidance.

We residents of St Catherine area Attard now have to walk half a km to the nearest Bus Stop. How's that for an upgrade of service. The only upgrade is in the fares. Looks more like ARRIVA la fregatura

mistakes in bus stops: Rabbat - Rabat, L-Univsersità - L-Università, Franxnu - Fraxxnu, Guljietta - Guljetta. Wondering who was inputting them into the system!

Ghalkemm Triq Bisazza, Tas-Sliema, giet maghluqa ghat-traffiku minnha se jibdew jghaddu tmien rotot tal-Arriva. Dan jidher li minhabba li l-ftehem kien diga' sar fuq ir-rotot minn fejn se jghaddu ma' Transport Malta u biex ma jinbidlux it-time-tables tal-linja se jghaddu minn Triq Bisazza.

Nice try Arriva, but to convince a regular car driver to take the bus, it's going to take a lot more convincing. The Network map is pretty useless as it is far too vague and doesn't explain a lot. If the bus say from Bugibba to Valletta picks up at all the bus stops in between, say Bahar ic-Caghaq or only at the places designated. More details and a faster site please as it takes 25 seconds to download the network map.

Well....i think we're going from bad to worse. Whose was the bright idea that all busses from Mellieha go through to Bugibba? The journey planner is confirming that the trip is going to be at least 15 minutes longer. Also can arriva pls confirm how in the same minute a bus is going to make the journey from ta' l-ibragg to the Maritim Hotel, including stopping at a number of stops and also embarking/disembarking passengers.
