Riders of the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority's Metro can now plan their trips using Google Maps online or with their mobile device. Riders can now visit http://maps.google.com/, select "get directions" and the "public transit" icon, and enter their start and end address. People with mobile devices can use the Google Maps for Mobile application or by visiting m.google.com/maps on their phone's browser. "We are pleased to partner with Google to give our riders another convenient way to plan their trips on Metrobus and Metrorail," said Catherine Hudgins, chair of WMATA's Board of Directors. "Google Maps is one of the most popular online mapping sites in the world, which will help local Metro riders plan their trips and assist visitors from around the globe."
