The original 14-town MTA district is shown in darkest pink, the 78-town MBTA district established in 1964 in medium pink, and the 175-town "forward funding" district established in 1999 as light pink. White areas are not part of the MBTA district but still pay state sales taxes which are partially used to fund the MBTA.
The app also includes an improved version of the MTA's Trip Planner; whereas the existing Trip Planner can only plan trips along MTA-operated modes of transportation, MYmta's Trip Planner can also suggest routes via other operators such as the Staten Island Ferry, NYC Ferry, PATH, and NJ Transit.
