transit system
City movement network
A transit system is the network of public transportation serving a city or region—buses, subways, light rail, and commuter trains operating together under coordinated routes and schedules.
The city's transit system runs twenty-four hours.
Transit systems are typically operated by public agencies and funded through fares and taxes.
