The Post a General Notice tool is used to post General Notices. Only users who are designated as General Notifiers in their user settings can post General Notices. They are further limited to only those alerts which they have permission to post. When a General Notice is posted, that posting appears on the public side of BusPlanner Web. Alerts appear as their time frames come into effect and are removed when the designated time frame has passed.
