Apple Maps Gets Transit Data for Australia City of Melbourne

The city of Melbourne in the Australian state of Victoria has been added to the number of locations for which transit data is available in Apple Maps, the stock mapping app on various Apple devices.

The freshly added transit data for Melbourne enables users of such devices to look up information, including station locations and directions, about the city’s public train, tram and bus networks in Apple Maps. Previously, New South Wales was the only Australian area with such data in Apple Maps.

Detailed transit information was originally added to Apple Maps with iOS 9 last year. The expansion of such information to Melbourne was reported today by MacRumors, which notes that cities with this data now include Austin, Baltimore, Berlin, Boston, Chicago, London, Los Angeles, Mexico City, Montreal, Toronto, New York City, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Seattle, Sydney and Washington, D.C.
