Let $\Gamma$ be a cofinite Fuchsian group acting on hyperbolic two-space $\HH.$ Let $M=\Gamma \setminus \HH $ be the corresponding quotient space. For $\gamma,$ a closed geodesic of $M$, let $l(\gamma)$ denote its length. The prime geodesic counting function $\pi_{M}(u)$ is defined as the number of $\Gamma$-inconjugate, primitive, closed geodesics $\gamma $ such that $e^{l(\gamma)} \leq u.$ The \emph{prime geodesic theorem} implies: $$\pi_{M}(u)=\sum_{0 \leq \lambda_{M,j} \leq 1/4} \text{li}(u^{s_{M,j}}) + O_{M}(\frac{u^{3/4}}{\log{u}}), $$ where $0=\lambda_{M,0} < \lambda_{M,1} <...$ are the eigenvalues of the hyperbolic Laplacian acting on the space of smooth functions on $M$ and $s_{M,j} = \frac{1}{2}+\sqrt{\frac{1}{4} - \lambda_{M,j}}. $ Let $C_{M}$ be smallest implied constant so that $$|\pi_{M}(u)-\sum_{0 \leq \lambda_{M,j} \leq 1/4} \text{li}(u^{s_{M,j}})|\leq C_{M}\frac{u^{3/4}}{\log{u}} \quad \text{\text{for all} $u > 1.$}$$ We call the (absolute) constant $C_{M}$ the Huber constant. The objective of this paper is to give an effectively computable upper bound of $C_{M}$ for an arbitrary cofinite Fuchsian group. As a corollary we estimate the Huber constant for $\PSL(2,\ZZ),$ we obtain $C_{M} \leq 16,607,349,020,658 \approx \exp(30.44086643)$.
