Edmonton Transit Trip Schedules with Route and Stop Details

A GTFS-based schedule feed for Edmonton Transit Service (ETS), providing trip timing, route, and stop information. The dataset is derived from the official GTFS zip file and joined into a user-friendly format. It is published by data.edmonton.ca and was last updated in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Modeling trip duration and stop sequences using arrival_time, departure_time, and stop_sequence.
• Analyzing accessibility features across routes using the wheelchair_accessible and bikes_allowed columns.
• Joining schedule data with service calendars via the service_id field for temporal analysis.
• Classifying transit modes (e.g., bus, rail) using route_type and route_type_descr for network studies.
• Mapping route paths and stop locations by integrating stop_id, stop_name, and route_long_name with geospatial data.

Strengths

• Includes 20 detailed columns covering schedule, route, stop, and service attributes.
• Data is structured according to the standardized GTFS reference specification.

Limitations

• Missing day-of-week schedule data due to the absence of calendar.txt in the source feed.
• Sample size and total row count are unknown, limiting assessment of completeness.
