Escape from Tarkov introduced a new map-to-map travel mode, the Marathon game mode. This mode allows players to run multiple maps or raids in one go and includes game-changing mechanics. Battlestate Games has been planning to combine every map for nearly a decade, and this update brings us closer to it than ever before.
Traveling from one map to another poses risks that have never been seen before. Players must plan their strategies ahead and even memorize all the transit locations and extraction points on every single map. Here’s the first step in doing so with this all-in-one transit location guide in Escape from Tarkov.

Keep in mind that these transit locations will open after the first minute has passed in the raid.
Ground Zero to Streets of Tarkov Transit Location
The transit location is opposite the Terragroup building/labs (the one with the multiple starter quests, such as the scientist’s hard drive). Go down the long and open ramp until you see the barricaded street with an explosion sign next to it. Hide in the corner and use the transit.
Streets of Tarkov to Labs Transit Location
The Streets of Tarkov to Labs location is the trickiest out of all the transit locations. It does make sense because it takes you to a secret laboratory. You must go to the residential zone in the Streets of Tarkov map. You’ll see a red building with a big graffiti of a man saluting on the right. On the main street leading to the Expo Checkpoint or Old Scav Checkpoint (the old extract), you’ll see an alleyway (first image). Look for the orange door, open it, and go down to the Labs transit.
Streets of Tarkov to Interchange Transit Location
In Streets of Tarkov, there’s another transit location that takes the player to Interchange. Players who frequently raid this map would probably already know where it is based on the picture. This is a blockaded street next to Concordia.
Streets of Tarkov to Ground Zero Transit Location
Streets of Tarkov to Ground Zero transit is near the Sewer River extraction. When facing the Sewer River tunnel, turn left and look for the playground. Head straight and look for the wall with a ton of garbage. This is the transit going to Ground Zero.
Interchange to Customs Transit Location
Interchange is the easiest map to navigate because the whole area is one big square. Outside of the Interchange mall, go to the OLI corner and head toward the railroad tracks as seen in the image above (this is opposite the Railway Exfil).
Interchange to Streets of Tarkov Transit Location
This transit is between the Railway Exfil and Interchange’s IDEA entrance. It is by the main road which is also a common PMC spawn on Interchange.
Customs to Reserve Transit Location
For stash runners, this spot will look familiar, as it is one of the main routes to getting all the hidden stashes in Customs. The transit location is behind the Scav Checkpoint. Follow the road to the gate, which is the transit spot.
Customs to Interchange Transit Location
The transit location might look familiar, as it is next to the trailer park extraction. Go to the clumped-up vehicles, and that should be the transit to Interchange.
Customs to Factory Transit Location
The Customs to Factory transit is the orange gate next to the Old Gas Station extraction point. Scavs frequent the area, and it is one of the hottest spots in Customs, so be careful.
Factory to Woods Transit Location
In patch 0.15, Factory got a slight rework with an added area next to the office area. On the first floor of the office, you’ll see a broken window where you can vault out of. This will lead you to the extended version of the Factory. Look for the bunkhouse in the second image. This is the transit location to Woods.
Factory to Customs Transit Location
Go and enter the first door to gate 2. Look for the hole in the wall and jump over it. Head straight and open the door. Look for the blue truck and this should be the transit back to Customs.
Factory to Labs Transit Location
Near the med tents (closer to the silos), you’ll see a hole in the floor leading to the basement. You’ll see a graffiti sign that says “Water is Wet,” and follow that path that leads to a metal door. Open the door that leads to the tunnel and turn left. The dead end is the Labs transit.
Woods to Reserve Transit Location
The Woods to Reserve transit location is basically the RUAF Roadblock extraction point. It is next to the Sawmill and Emercom base. The Blood Samples quest with the van is also near the extraction.
Woods to Factory Transit Location
The Woods to Factory transit is literally Woods’ previous Factory Gate extraction point. This gate is between the RUAF Gate and the UN Roadblock, which are both extractions.
Woods to Lighthouse Transit Location
The Woods to Lighthouse is literally the previous Outskirts extraction point. This is near the ZB-014 bunker and towards the east from the sawmill when facing the shore.
Reserve to Lighthouse Transit Location
The Reserve to Lighthouse transit is conveniently located near the Armored Trains extraction point. While inside the warehouse or the Armored Train extraction, follow the train tracks until you see the sniper signs. Don’t go beyond this point, or you’ll get shot by PC snipers. Turn left and look for the broken fence. This is the transit location to Lighthouse.
Reserve to Customs Transit Location
Reserve to Customs transit is beside the Scav Lands PMC and Scav co-op extraction point. It is also a common PMC spawn point on Reserve. You’ll see a barricade with a tiny guard house next to the rail tracks. That gate or barricade is the transit location.
Reserve to Woods Transit Location
The Reserve to Woods transit location is near heating pipes and behind the hill where the bunker hermetic door is located. Go past the first fence and look for the one with a broken fence (near an armored car).
Lighthouse to Reserve Transit Location
The Lighthouse to Reserve transit location is beside the road leading to the vehicle extraction or V-Ex in Lighthouse. It is just by the side before even reaching the V-Ex extraction. It is between warehouses 2 and 3 in the water treatment plant.
Lighthouse to Woods Transit Location
The Lighthouse to Woods transit location is the previous Northern Checkpoint extraction. It is in the northmost part of Lighthouse, next to the railyard, where you finish the Energy Crisis task.
Lighthouse to Shoreline Transit Location
The Lighthouse to Shoreline transit is essentially the “Path to Shoreline” extraction. It is located near a small town and an abandoned village.
Shoreline to Lighthouse Transit Location
The Shoreline to Lighthouse transit location is the previous Path to Lighthouse extraction point. It is near the swamp where you finish the Courtesy Visit task.
