Google Transit Feasibility Study

The Shasta County Regional Transportation Planning Agency (SCRTPA), as the designated Metropolitan Planning Organization for Shasta County has initiated a feasibility study that will integrate rural and small-urban public transit operator's schedules into Google's new Google Transit application. The Trinity County Transportation Commission will be participating in this feasibility study with SCRTPA to identify gaps in inter-regional and inter-state connectivity for both public and private transportation providers.

The transit trip planning feature in Google Maps/Transit enables users to create travel itineraries using public transportation schedules. This service has the ability to identify transportation links between cities, counties and transportation service providers.

The feasibility study and implementation plan will be available on June 1, 2009.
