In an embodiment, a route schedule and notification system which includes a computer-implemented method in a mobile computing device is for collecting route context from a plurality of passengers along a roadway, transmitting the route context to a route context analytics server, providing an estimation of vehicle arrived to a target vehicle stop, generating an estimated arrival time notification for passenger to plan the schedule to wait for a vehicle arrival. Also, an embodiment, a route schedule and notification system which includes a computer-implemented method in the route context analytics server is for analysing, predicting or estimating the vehicle arrival and departure time, calculating the travel time of vehicle on the road, determining an alternative route to reach the destination, generating the real arrival time notification for passenger to plan the schedule to wait for a vehicle arrival.
