Once an origin and destination have been entered, the trip planner will find itineraries that best match the query. The resulting itineraries will be listed as well as displayed graphically on the map. The trip will show itineraries found.

The initial results list only a summary of each itinerary, including suggested departure and arrival times, trip duration, and which routes are involved.

Select view details to expand an itinerary for more information, including transfers, stop information, walking time and instructions, and fares.

To return to the list of itinerary summaries, select the arrow to the left of itinerary details.

TIP: Making even a slight change to the time of travel, using an intersection, landmark, or stop ID instead of an address, or using or revising other trip planning options will likely provide different results and may improve them. Trip planner users are encouraged to try various features and input for the best possible results.

Located on the Next Departures screen (or tab), the right-side pull-out menu labeled Routes provides information about specific routes, including the route map, stops, schedules, and next departure times.
