Culver City riders now have a major upgrade to their digital experience available as Culver CityBus and Transit announced a new partnership.
The Transit app helps users easily navigate public transit in 1000 cities in 28 countries around the world with multi-modal trip planning, nearby departure times, and gamification features that let users climb the leaderboards on their daily commute.
The partnership makes Transit the recommended app for Culver CityBus riders through a Royale sponsorship. With Royale, riders gain access to unlimited departure schedules, additional trip planning options, custom app themes and icons, and more. Culver CityBus can also communicate with riders through the app, keeping them informed of important changes and events as they happen.
“Reliable public transportation begins with giving riders clear, timely information they can use with confidence,” said Culver City Mayor Freddy Puza. “Our partnership with Transit makes it easier to plan trips, receive real-time service updates, and navigate Culver CityBus from one convenient app. This is another important step in our ongoing work to improve the rider experience and make sustainable transportation more accessible to everyone.”
“Our mission has always been to help people get around without their own car,” said Sam Vermette, CEO of Transit. “Every month we help 8 million people around the world navigate their cities by bus, train, foot, bike, and more, and that wouldn’t be possible without our agency partners. We’re proud to be working hand-in-hand with Culver CityBus to unlock the best app experience for their riders.”
Transit and Culver CityBus are also improving the rider experience through:
Service disruptions: Planned detours, service changes and disruptions in Culver CityBus’s real-time feed will appear for riders on the map and influence the trip planner results in Transit.
Through this partnership, Culver CityBus and Transit will continue working in tandem to make public transit more reliable and easy to use in Culver City. For more information about Transit Royale and Culver CityBus’s services, visit the Culver CityBus website.
