Transit - Subway & Bus Times is a free travel and navigation mobile application by developer Transit, Inc. It is a transportation companion tool that provides users with real-time bus and subway run schedules, so they can track their arrival time at designated stops and stations where they can board.  

Similar to apps like Citymapper or Moovit, Transit- Subway & Bus Times makes it easier and simpler for travelers to plan trips and itineraries using reliable public transportation schedule information. There’s an optional Transit Royale subscription for more features, including the ability to buy tickets straight from the app. 

More organized public commuting 

The Transit - Subway & Bus Times app is available in over 1,000 cities, including Los Angeles, Vancouver, and others, and is partnered with over 180 transportation agencies, as part of a global push for better, more organized public transportation and commuting. It provides real-time departure and travel times for buses and subways in your city, so you can plan your day ahead. 

To get started, use the search bar to set a destination, and you’ll be provided with different transport options for bus, bike, and train. Select one to track it in real-time and an ETA of when it will arrive at the station near you. There are filters you can apply if you want a specific travel operator, avoid long walks, and other specific conditions you may have. 

You’ll also be notified of delays and disruptions, so you can adjust accordingly and take a different route or mode of transport. The GO feature offers step-by-step navigation, and it also supports multimodal travel. Something to note is that some functions in Transit - Subway & Bus Times are only available in specific regions, such as purchasing tickets and paying for fares within the app, just to name a few.

A smarter way to go about the city 

To conclude, Transit - Subway & Bus Times is a must-try for anyone who commutes daily, as it will make it easier to plan their day ahead by knowing just when buses and trains arrive. Track their movements in real-time, and know if delays and problems on the road happen, so you can adapt quickly. The multimodal travel and step-by-step navigation will also come in handy for tourists and visitors.
