Routes Israel
Trusted75/100MCP server providing real-time public transit routing and arrival information for Israel. Combines Google Routes API for transit directions, Google Places API for city detection, GTFS data for accurate stop code matching, and curlbus integration for live bus/train arrival times from Israeli transit operators. Supports Hebrew-localized addresses and times, returns multi-step transit routes with operator names, route numbers, departure/arrival stops, and real-time arrival countdowns.
The Problem
Planning public transit routes in Israel requires combining various information sources - routes, stops, arrival times, and operators. There is no single tool that connects everything and provides real-time routing with live arrival times in Hebrew.
