  2. Then, set the time when the closure starts and ends.

Note on Public Transport Data​

Public transport routes and timetables can change over time; routes may be disrupted, or special event services may be in place. Most transport authorities publish an updated route and timetable via GTFS.

While it is possible to get real-time data on routes and timetables from the respective transit authorities, currently we have not implemented such process. Instead, we consider the GTFS data as a static data.

The GTFS feed we have on the platform is retrieved from transitfeeds.com, dated for 28 December 2023 until 31 March 2024.
