What is the HERE Mobility MCP Server?
What you can do
Connect AI agents to the HERE Transit API for comprehensive public transportation planning:
- Discover transit trips between any two locations with bus, train, subway, tram, and ferry
- Find nearby stations by GPS coordinates or name search
- Get detailed route information with step-by-step transit instructions and transfers
- Check departure/arrival schedules for any station in real-time
- Plan multimodal journeys combining transit, walking, cycling, and scooter
- Get station details including accessibility, amenities, and serving lines
- Search trips with specific transport modes for customized travel preferences
How it works
- Get your HERE API key from the HERE Developer Portal (free tier available)
- Ask your AI agent to plan trips, find stations, or check schedules
- Natural language commands replace manual transit app navigation
- Real-time transit data from HERE's global coverage of 70+ countries
Who is this for?
Essential for urban commuters, travelers, tourists, accessibility advocates, transit enthusiasts, and city planners. Let AI agents find optimal public transit routes, compare multimodal options, check real-time departures, and plan complex journeys across transportation networks. Perfect for anyone in cities with public transit who wants to reduce driving costs, minimize carbon footprint, and navigate efficiently without car ownership.
Built-in capabilities (8)
Returns trip details including departure/arrival times, duration, number of transfers, and transport modes. Use origin and destination in lat,lng format. Optionally specify departure or arrival time in ISO 8601 format. Best for planning multimodal journeys. Discover public transit trips between origin and destination using HERE Transit API
More precise than get_stations with customizable radius. Returns station IDs, names, distances, coordinates, and available lines. Use this for comprehensive station discovery in an area. Find all transit stations within a specific radius of coordinates
Requires the trip ID from a discover_trips result plus original origin/destination and departure time. Use this to review full route before traveling. Get detailed route information for a specific transit trip
Useful for checking when the next bus, train, or subway arrives. Requires station ID from get_stations result. Optionally filter by direction (e.g., "northbound", "downtown"). Get departure/arrival schedule for a specific transit station
Requires station ID from station search results. Use this to review station facilities before planning trips. Get detailed information about a specific transit station
Returns station IDs, names, coordinates, and available transport lines. Use this to find stations before planning trips. Find transit stations near a GPS coordinate
g., "Central Station", "Times Square"). Returns matching stations with IDs, names, coordinates, and available transport lines. Use this when you know the station name but not exact coordinates. Find transit stations by name
Modes can include: transit (bus/train/subway/tram/ferry), walk, bicycle, scooter, taxi. Returns multimodal route options with time breakdown per mode. Use this when user wants to combine walking or cycling with public transit for optimal journey. Search trips combining multiple transport modes (transit, walk, bike, scooter)

Frequently asked questions
Which cities and countries does HERE Transit cover?
HERE Transit provides coverage in 70+ countries worldwide, including major cities in North America, Europe, Asia, South America, and Australia. Coverage includes bus, train, subway, tram, and ferry networks. Check coverage at developer.here.com for your specific city.
Is real-time transit data available through this MCP?
Yes! The schedule endpoint returns real-time departure and arrival estimates where available. Many transit agencies provide real-time GTFS-RT feeds that HERE integrates. Actual vs scheduled times are returned so you can see delays. Coverage varies by transit agency.
Can I plan wheelchair-accessible transit routes?
Yes! Use the get_station_details tool to check wheelchair accessibility for each station. Station details include elevator availability, step-free access, and accessibility amenities. Combine this with trip planning to ensure all transfer points are accessible for mobility-impaired travelers.
How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?
Run claude mcp add <name> --transport http "<url>" in your terminal. Claude Code registers the server and discovers all tools immediately.
Can Claude Code run MCP tools in headless mode?
Yes. Claude Code supports non-interactive execution, making it ideal for scripts, cron jobs, and CI/CD pipelines that need MCP tool access.
How do I list all connected MCP servers?
Run claude mcp in your terminal to see all registered servers and their status, or type /mcp inside an active Claude Code session.
