I'm always suspicious of public-private partnerships, so I was very curious to learn more about the Metro Transit deal that got everyone access to Royale in the Transit App. Turns out, there's way more to the partnership than that, Minnesota is improving the transit data landscape for everyone in the world. Really cool stuff on the #StreetsMNPodcast !

@ianrbuck i used to pay for Royale. I was kinda shocked when i was granted it back after cancelling. The arrival estimates have also gotten *super* accurate since (which has burned me a few times when I’ve assumed I could leave 2 minutes after it said i should.)
