Google to add transit maps for New York

I’ll be excited when they add it to the Google Mobile version. Even after 4 years in the city, I still forget what goes where sometimes… Especially those West side subway lines.

Google has been providing Google Maps-based public transit directions for a few years now. If you happen to live in Portland, San Diego, Pittsburgh, or a handful of other cities, that is.
But Bloomberg is reporting that Google Transit is about to add directions for the largest public transportation system in the country: New York City.
Earlier this year, Google added subway stop information to New York City maps. But there was no way to get directions from one stop to another. According to Bloomberg, Google is working with New York’s Metropolitan Transportation Authority and New Jersey Transit to develop the trip planner.
