Maintaining data

Trillium’s WebSchedule to publish and maintain Google Transit Feed information


Maintaining data

What info needs to be updated?


• Timetables

• Stop locations

• Route alignments

• Fares, zones, fare rules

• Holidays

• Seasonal service start and end dates

Changes should be published to Google two weeks in advance. If Trillium makes the update, we need to receive notification one month in advance.

Questions?
