About Transit
Transit is a public transit app made in Montreal and founded in 2012. It shows real-time departures, plans trips and offers step-by-step GO navigation, which tells you when to leave, when your stop is coming and when to get off.
It suits commuters, students and visitors finding their way around Montreal by bus and metro. GO is especially handy in a new neighbourhood or a city you do not know well. The app also works in many other cities, so it stays useful when you travel. It is a Montreal-made tool that many people rely on every day.
