The General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS) is a common format for public transportation schedules. It is an open standard, and is used by thousands of public transport providers around the world.
GTFS feeds are made up of a series of text files, which can be easily consumed by software applications, such as non-NPS navigation providers and mapping services. Below are the currently available GTFS files for transit systems that operate in National Park Service sites.
Static GTFS Resources
Park transit GTFS feeds are updated regularly to reflect changes in service levels, typically at the start of each operating season, which is unique to each park. Developers should download each park transit system GTFS feed regularly as the feeds are updated throughout the year when transit schedules change. The table provides information on each park's GTFS feed "valid through" and "last update" dates.
Park | System | GTFS URL | Valid Through | Last Modified | Notes |
