Why aren’t all scheduled buses shown live?

The timetable shows all scheduled departures, but the map only shows buses currently reporting a live GPS position. A scheduled bus may therefore appear without a live marker. Use the timetable for planned departure times and the live map as real-time guidance when vehicle data is available. Live locations and arrival estimates may be delayed or temporarily unavailable, so please allow extra time for your journey.

Are all blue bus stops clickable?

Yes. Select any blue stop to view scheduled departures for that specific stop and check whether a bus is currently reporting live for it. This helps you confirm where to board and view the timetable relevant to that stop and direction.

Bright red lines show the selected bus routes. No boundary overlay is added. Shapes and stops come from the project's GTFS data. Dashed purple shuttle lines connect published boarding points and are not exact road geometry. Click any bus stop to see its live schedule.
