PublicRoutes.com
Expands Offerings to 35 Cities Nationwide
Orlando, Florida and
Hartford, Connecticut
now part of the PublicRoutes.com platform of international directions-based services
New York, NY - February 4, 2008 - PublicRoutes.com, the first international
Web resource for public transportation and driving directions, today announced
the launch of a complete resource for navigating throughout the entire
metropolitan areas of Orlando, Florida and Hartford, Connecticut.
Recognizing
a need for all municipalities to have an easy, one-stop-shop for providing
directions around their respective areas, the addition of these two cities furthers
the company's range of service to citizens across the United States. It brings the total
number of domestic cities to 35, giving PublicRoutes.com the largest such selection
of cities among other similar online directions resources.
Having
launched more than a year ago, PublicRoutes.com provides local residents and
visitors in each metropolitan area with point-to-point directions for all modes
of transportation available - from bus to driving to walking directions.Merging all a city's resources into a free,
easy-to-use website, PublicRoutes.com also allows users to obtain information and door-to-door directions to each city's top points of interest
including restaurants, sporting arenas and nightlife venues.
"The
residents of Hartford and Orlando deserve to have options when
traveling around town, especially when those options decrease their travel time
and maximize their efficiency," said Arvind Rampurada,
CIO of PublicRoutes.com. "Regardless of whether a person is traveling in the
harshest of winter conditions or the mildest of climates, a user is able to
sign onto PublicRoutes.com to find the best way to get from point A to point B,
while not missing the great attractions in between. Also, with increasing gas prices and heating
costs during the winter seasons, public transit remains a smart option for both
residents and tourists, whether in Florida or Connecticut."
Specifically
in each state, PublicRoutes.com covers all LYNX bus lines in Orlando,
Florida as well as all CTTransit
buses in the Hartford, Connecticut area.
The company
will soon expand to include more cities within the U.S. and internationally. For more information and to access the new
PublicRoutes.com navigation resource, please visit www.publicroutes.com.
