The challenge

Riders needed schedules, fares, and trip planning that were easy to find on a phone. Staff needed a better way to publish changing service information.

Our work

We reorganized the website around common rider tasks and helped convert schedule spreadsheets to GTFS. GTFS-to-HTML generates timetables and maps from the published feed, which also supplies route and stop information to Google Maps and other trip planners. GTFS-Realtime data adds live vehicle locations and arrival predictions to the map, along with active service alerts on route timetables.

Publishing tools for agency staff

We built the website in WordPress with custom content types and publishing processes developed with agency staff.
