nyctransit.us is built on public open data. Our servers download each feed from the publisher's servers, store it, and serve it to you from our own servers. Information on this site may not be real time, may contain errors and is provided as is. For official information, use the operator's own channels.
| Feed | Publisher | How we use it |
|---|---|---|
| Subway schedules (including planned service changes) | MTA New York City Transit | Trip planner, station and line pages. Rebuilt daily. |
| Bus schedules (NYCT borough feeds and MTA Bus Company) | MTA | Trip planner and bus pages. Rebuilt daily. |
| Long Island Rail Road and Metro-North schedules | MTA | Trip planner. Rebuilt daily. |
| NYC Ferry schedules | NYC Ferry | Trip planner. |
| Staten Island Ferry schedules | NYC DOT, via NYC Open Data | Trip planner. |
| AirTrain JFK (estimated) | nyctransit.us | No public feed exists. We model a train about every 10 minutes from the 5 to 15 minute frequency published by JFK Airport. Times are estimates. |

Not every scheduled trip can be matched with real-time data. When no live prediction is available, we show the scheduled time.
MTA data is used under the MTA's terms and conditions for developers: we do not state or imply that the MTA endorses or licenses this site, we serve the data from our own servers, and we tell you that it may not be real time. Fare and service information in our guides is checked against the official websites listed on each page.
