Good news.

Google has announced that it has fully integrated real-time information from DublinBikes stations into Google Maps.

The move will make it easier for users to find DublinBikes stations around the city but also to check how many bikes are currently available at each station.

It will also let you know how many spaces are vacant at each station.

The function is now available on the Google Maps app on Android and iOS.

The company rolled out the feature to a total of 24 cities in 16 countries, including Dublin on Wednesday.

This bird’s eye view into bikesharing is now available in the following cities globally with more on the way: Barcelona, Berlin, Brussels, Budapest, Chicago, Dublin, Hamburg, Helsinki, Kaohsiung, London, Los Angeles, Lyon, Madrid, Mexico City, Montreal, New Taipei City, New York City, Rio de Janeiro, San Francisco Bay Area, São Paulo, Toronto, Vienna, Warsaw,  and Zurich.
