Google Transit Makes Public Transportation Easier

By Dan Gould on January 14, 2009

Google has added an easy to use public transportation layer called Google Transit to its map application. Over 50 world city maps now include a handy way to plan car-free trips. Although Google maps will already list the locations and schedules of public transportation options where available, this new tool allows users to get a holistic picture of an area’s transportation map and figure out routes when they don’t come up in a search.
