More transit agencies get on board

Posted on 11:44 by Unknown

Summer is my favorite season. It's warm and sunny, there's plenty of fresh fruit as a treat for my sweet tooth, all the extra daylight makes me feel more productive, and of course there are summer trips. This summer, a lot of transit agencies reported historically high ridership. To help people to easily plan their trips, many transit agencies have turned to Google Maps to integrate their route, schedule and stop information.

In fact, in the few months since our successful Earth Day Challenge, we've launched another big batch of new US agencies on Google Transit! So if you are traveling to or live in any of these cities, your planning just got a whole lot easier: 

  • MetroLink Transit (Los Angeles, CA metropolitan region)
  • Irvine Shuttle (Irvine, CA)
  • OMNITRANS (San Bernardino County, CA)
  • Roseville Transit (Roseville, CA)
  • AC Transit (Alameda & Contra Costa County, CA)
  • Broward County Transit (Broward County, FL)
  • Miami-Dade Transit (Miami-Dade County, FL)
  • Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (Atlanta, GA)
  • Metro Transit (Minneapolis, MN)
  • Mountain Line (Missoula, MT)
  • Capital District Transportation Authority (Albany, NY)
  • Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority (Cleveland, OH)
  • Central Ohio Transit Authority (Columbus, OH)
  • Cleveland Area Rapid Transit (Norman, OK)
  • Island Transit (Island County, WA)
  • Jefferson Transit Authority, (Port Townsend, WA)
  • Green Bay Metro Transit (Green Bay, WI)
  • Mountain Line Transit Authority (Morgantown, WV)


Internationally, we also have made great progress – we added Ottawa in Canada, Olsztyn in Poland, and Moscow in Russia.
