📣 🚍 Passengers can now purchase National Express West Midlands bus tickets directly in the Citymapper app! This first-of-its-kind integration is thanks to our partnership with Masabi and National Express Bus. Giving passengers the ability to plan, pay and ride all in one place is a huge step towards making public transport more accessible for all, and we're thrilled to make this a reality for passengers in the West Midlands. Check out how it works below and reach out to us if you'd like to learn more.
