GTFS-to-HTML | GTFS-to-HTML

Why?

Most transit agencies have schedule data in GTFS format but need to show each route's schedule to users on a website.

What?

This tool automates the process of creating nicely formatted HTML timetables for inclusion on a transit agency website.

Automate schedule changes

Automating timetable creation means that timetables can be kept up to date and accurate when schedule changes happen and the likelihood of errors is reduced.

It's been a huge success. Not only do the timetables look fantastic, but I've had customer service agents tell me the interactive timetables are a total game changer and they make their jobs way easier.

npm install -g gtfs-to-html

Use the web-based version

(For smaller GTFS files only)
