DfT Bus Open Data

Today we made the Public Service Vehicle Open Data Regulations #busopendata. From the end of 2020, all operators of local bus services across England and the borders will be legally required to publish timetables, fares and location data #allaboard. 🚌📱🙂legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2020/749/…

Update - DfT has recently published the Mobility as a Service Code of Practice. gov.uk/government/pub…

The #BusOpenDataService has grown significantly in the past couple of years and this visualisation we made for @transportgovuk demonstrates the coverage of data in the UK for just a couple of hours.

The Bus services around the Christmas and New Year will often operate differently to normal weeks. Data for services such as DfT BODS needs to be updated. This advice deals with how to prepare data to ensure that it is correct Christmas 2022-23. rtig.org.uk/system/files/d…

I am delighted to be reappointed as a Minister in DfT. Transport is a key enabler of economic growth and I look forward to delivering existing commitments and working on new opportunities. #reshuffle #Transport
