New subway and bus Planned Service Changes feed

[Raschke, Kurt]

Dear Developer:

 

MTA New York City Transit has released a new Planned Service Changes feed, available from http://web.mta.info/developers/developer-data-terms.html, which provides information on planned subway and bus service changes (the same information which feeds The Weekender and http://travel.mtanyct.info/serviceadvisory/) in an XML file with machine-readable metadata to identify affected services, directions of travel, and times.  The feed contains all planned subway and bus service changes for a rolling three-week period.

 

We will have more detailed documentation on this feed available in the future.

Is anyone able to point me to a reference source that enables the translation of the stop identifiers used in this file to stop codes in the GTFS.

Here's an example:

<Stop>33802</Stop>

Thanks

[Laura Rokita]

Is there any documentation available for the Planned Service Changes feed? More specifically, I'd like to understand what the different Statustype's mean as well as the stop identifier (i.e., "189292" appears to be the identifier for the 86 St C,B station).

Thanks!

[David Goldberg]

I would like to add my voice to the chorus of folks requesting documentation of the feed available at http://web.mta.info/developers/data/nyct/plannedwork.xml

Specifically, how does one interpret stop identifiers and the state identifiers?

This data source could be extremely valuable to the community if only it were documented!
