Posted on 09:57 by Unknown
Posted by Chris Harrelson, Software Engineer, Google Transit

We've always been proud of the practical uses and environmental benefits of Google Transit, but it turns out that it's an extremely helpful tool for another very important reason. Read about one Googler's own unique perspective on why it's an invaluable resource for people with no and low vision.

We're continuing to add more agencies to the Transit fold (Fredericton Transit, Canada; Pioneer Valley Transit Authority, Massachusetts; and Sage Stage, California are recent additions), and we'll keep you posted on our progress.
