Browsing all Maryland MTA stops. When a stop cluster is clicked, the map zooms in on that cluster. The number on the cluster indicates the number of stops in it.

Powerful text based stop search facility on the left. The right shows the next buses for our selected stop which is the westbound stop at the intersection of Fayette street and Holliday street.

My Stops page showing recently viewed and bookmarked stops on the left. Next bus listings for the selected stop are visible on the right. A small beating circle right of the time indicates that live tracking is available. A large beating circle means the bus location is also known and is shown when viewing detailed trip information.

Drop down box listing all the stops in alphabetical order that can be reached from this stop

After selecting the destination as Fayette street and Greene street from the drop down box, only buses stopping at this destination are listed. The predicted arrival time at the destination is also shown.

When a departure is clicked, detailed trip information can be viewed. The green map marker is our stop at Fayette street and Holliday street while the red marker is the destination stop selected in the drop down menu. Clicking on a stop icon shows the stop name and predicted arrival time of the bus at that stop.

The mapped trip information shown in the previous image can also be viewed on a schematic trip diagram. The prediction times and bus location update every minute on both the trip map and diagram.

About YourStop

Compact, easy to use application which allows users find next bus departures at stops quickly and easily. MDOT MTA in Baltimore and the MBTA in Boston are supported alongside many other regions worldwide (see below for full list). Live predictions are given when available and buses can be tracked in real time. Recently viewed stops are automatically saved for easy reuse and favorite stops can be bookmarked with a single tap. Transit provider schedules can also be browsed.

In YourStop, users can find stops using three distinct methods. There is a detailed stop search facility and a capability to browse all of a transit providers stops on a map. Perhaps most useful though, is the “Locate the Nearest Stops” button which a user sees when they first launch the app. This marks all stop within half a mile of the user on a map. If there are less than 20, the next closest are shown.

A useful feature is a destination drop down box which appears when viewing departures for a stop. This lists all stops in alphabetical order that can be reached from this stop without changing bus or train. When a destination in the drop down list is selected, departures which do not stop at this destination are filtered out. All remaining departures will stop at the destination and the time at the destination shown.

Destination drop down combines well with live ride where you can follow your bus or train on the google trip map after it leaves your stop. The destination stop is clearly marked in a different color and you can easily see where you are in relation to it.

United States: Baltimore (MTA) and Boston (MBTA)
