transit line
Fixed transportation path
A transit line is a route served by public transportation—a bus line, subway line, or rail line connecting specific points along a fixed path.
The term emphasizes the route itself rather than the vehicles: The new transit line will connect downtown to the airport.
Transit lines are typically identified by numbers, letters, or colors on system maps.
