UMVA has learned that a game-changing tool is now available to help commuters navigate the transit system with ease, leaving no more wondering where your train is or why it's delayed.
The transit commission has just launched an interactive Live Map on its website, designed to provide "a clear, interactive view of subway and light rail transit (LRT) service across the network," giving customers real-time awareness and greater confidence in their travels.
This innovative map is the first step in a phased rollout, with bus and streetcar routes set to be added in a future update later this year, allowing users to plan their journeys more efficiently.
UMVA can exclusively reveal that the transit commission is eager to gather customer feedback to refine the experience, with customer input being critical in shaping the final version of this interactive tool.
The Live Map boasts a range of exciting features, including a navigational panel that allows users to explore real-time train and bus departures, occupancy levels, and station features, making it easier to plan your trip.
Additional tools on the map include a map tool function that helps users navigate, a location service function that enables users to find nearby stations, and a feedback section where users can share their thoughts directly with the development team.
The Live Map is also fully compliant with accessibility standards, ensuring that everyone can use it with ease, and can be accessed through the transit commission's website or via a dedicated webpage.
