Which areas in a city have easy access to public transportation? Check out the new Transit Access theme in the Urban Observatory to find out!
This access map reveals areas that are 1/4 mile, 1/2 mile, and 1 km away from the nearest bus, metro or train stop. These distances equate to around a 5, 10, and 12 minute walk, typically.
Transit locations are from the GTFS Data Exchange. Access is based on a walkability analysis in ArcGIS, using Network Analyst and HERE streets data in StreetMap Premium.
