“Passengers must call agency” feature in Google Maps
There is a new feature in Google Maps. When a pickup_type or drop_off_type of “2” is specified in provided GTFS, Google Maps displays “Passengers must call agency: [agency’s phone number]” in red text. This feature is helpful because it displays information for scheduled times that previously did not show up in Google Maps.
