NEWARK, N.J. — Internet search engine Google will soon be helping New Jersey Transit train riders plan their trips.
Under a deal to be announced today, travelers will be able to use Google Transit to get trip times and transfers between 164 rail stations and 60 light rail stations.
The information will be integrated with Google Maps.
More than 30 transportation agencies around the country offer Google trip planning, but NJ Transit is the first in the Northeast.
NJ Transit bus information is to be added later this year.
