The Transit app will replace the Metro on the Go app for multi-modal trip planning around St. Louis.
"Metro Transit in St. Louis is one of the latest cities to partner with Transit, an app-based system that allows riders to book trips using any number of bus, light-rail or ride-hailing options," reports Skip Descant.
"In St. Louis the Transit app will replace the Metro on the Go trip-planning app, which was launched in 2015. The Metro on the Go app will be discontinued after April 30," adds Descant.
Other cities with similar arrangements with Transit include Boston, Detroit, Las Vegas, and Nashville, among others.
