Design notes

Citymapper turns a complicated network of transport options into a sequence of concrete decisions. Transport colours, departure times and route legs work as rapid visual landmarks.

Its information hierarchy is particularly relevant to designers of time-sensitive interfaces: the next action remains prominent even when the underlying data is complex.
