MapmyIndia Adds Multimodal Public Transport Routes To Mappls

MapmyIndia, India’s digital mapping, navigation and location intelligence company, has expanded the capabilities of its Mappls app by introducing multimodal public transport routes. The new feature enables users to access metro, rail and bus route information directly within the app, strengthening its position as a comprehensive mobility platform.

The addition allows users to plan journeys that combine private and public transport on a single, fully indigenous maps and navigation system. With coverage of more than 40 million public transport routes, stops and interchanges nationwide, the feature is designed to support efficient and sustainable mobility. It is currently available in select cities including Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Chandigarh, Pune, Kolkata, Ahmedabad, Nagpur, Indore, Patna, Lucknow, Kanpur, Agra, Jaipur, Kochi and Bhopal, with access on iOS and web platforms and an Android rollout planned shortly.

Commenting on the launch, Mr Rakesh Verma, Co-Founder, Chairman and Managing Director of MapmyIndia Mappls, said the introduction of multimodal public transport routes on the Mappls app represents a direct outcome of listening to user feedback. He added that the company is pleased to begin rolling out the feature across select cities and will continue expanding coverage to make public transport more convenient for millions of Indians. As a fully indigenous platform built in India for India, Mappls remains committed to supporting sustainable urban mobility by seamlessly integrating public transport into everyday navigation.

The new public transport feature complements Mappls’ existing turn-by-turn navigation, real-time traffic updates, safety alerts and intelligent routing. By making public transport information easier to access, the company aims to encourage wider adoption of mass transit, helping reduce congestion, lower emissions and support cleaner urban environments.
