The addition of Transit to Apple Maps is fantastic, even better when you live in a city with a complex mass transit system.

To see this for yourself, fire up the Apple Maps app in iOS 9. Clear the search bar, then tap in it. A series of 8 circles should appear in it. Tap the one labeled Transport.

Next, tap one of the Transport circles that appear. For example, if you live near a bus line, tap Bus Stops. Your map should be populated by local bus stops, with a scrolling list of stops at the bottom.

If your local stops don’t appear, tap the info (i in a circle) button in the lower right corner and make sure the Transit tab is tapped. Mine was on Map by default. With the Transit tab tapped, you’ll have a transit-oriented map. Zoom way in to see your local stops.

Tap on a stop and you’ll see how far you are from it. You’ll also see a list of buses that stop at that stop and, most importantly, you’ll see how long until the next bus gets there. If you tap on the time (all the way on the right), the time of the next 3 buses will appear (Thanks Benjamin Mayo!)

Update: Updated the post to show how to get to the Transit view on Apple Maps. Hat tip to Gordon Meyer for walking me through that.
