## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need step-by-step, turn-by-turn transit directions for a specific journey between two points. Prefer this over multi-modal planning endpoints when the user specifically wants public transit only. Best suited for travelers and commuters who need actionable directions rather than general route analysis or reliability data.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized location inputs
- Requested departure time is outside of service hours
- Service area not covered by the transit data provider
- Malformed request parameters return a 400 error
