The Greater Eastside Transit Map is the East King County counterpart to the Seattle Transit Map. It shows transit service on the east side of Lake Washington from Bothell in the Northshore, the core cities of Kirkland, Redmond and Bellevue, south to Newport Hills, and east to Issaquah. The first edition was published in March 2020, when the North Eastside Mobility Plan was implemented, creating more direct local routes and expanding frequent service.
The map was created in partnership with the Greater Redmond Transportation Management Association (now Move Redmond), who advocates for better biking, walking and transit in Redmond.

In anticipation of Link light rail coming to the Eastside, we once again partnered with Move Redmond to create a series of maps that help people understand how they can use walking, biking, and transit to access places along the new Link 2 Line. The first edition of the maps launched in April 2024 along with the starter 2 Line (South Bellevue-Redmond Technology) in an online and pocket map format. In May 2025, the maps were updated and expanded for the Downtown Redmond Link Extension. Future updates are planned for the East Link Connections changes to bus service when the full 2 Line across Lake Washington opens in 2026.
The maps cover station access at two scales. The Bike & Transit Map covers a wide area of the Eastside, showing how people can access the 2 Line by bus and bike. It shows transit routes and bikeways, including Eastrail and Leafline regional trails. It is notable for being a single unified bike map for all the Eastside. The Station Access Maps cover the 10-minute walkable area around stations and include helpful details like the location of bus stops, crosswalks and signalized intersections. Bikeway information is also included. The online version of the maps seamlessly switch between the two scales when zoomed in and out.
