Brief description
GTFS Realtime feeds have been provided by the Victoria Department of Transport and Planning\n\nto provide realtime updates about Public Transport services. It contains feeds about:\n\n* **Trip Updates** \\- delays, cancellations, changed routes\n* **Service Alerts** \\- stop moved, unforeseen events affecting a station, route or the entire network\n* **Vehicle Positions** \\- information about the vehicles including location and congestion level\n\n \n\nPlease note these feeds are provided in the Protocol Buffer format and are not human readable.\n\nFor more information refer to this GTFS Realtime page () which is maintained by MobilityData () and facilitates the GTFS and GTFS\\-R specification.\n\n \n\n\n**API Key** \\- To obtain an API Key please continue to signup using our old [Data Exchange Platform](https://data-exchange.vicroads.vic.gov.au/) (TEMPORARY)\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n**Summary of Changes**\n\n**GTFS\\-R \\- Trip Updates \\- Metro Train:** Schedule Relationships, Stop ID, and Route ID have been added as additional fields to enhance real\\-time trip accuracy. \n\n**GTFS\\-R \\- Vehicle Positions \\- Metro Train:** Route ID added as a Conditionally Required field to improve data details. \n\n**GTFS\\-R \\- Service Alerts \\- Metro Train:** Additional information about planned and unplanned disruptions have been added to include more details about delays and bus replacement services. Route ID and Direction ID are two new fields that have been added also. \n\n \n\n**Please note:** the information in the current ‘Required’ data fields remains the same and data feeds continue to follow the GTFS Realtime [global standards and specifications](https://gtfs.org/documentation/realtime/reference/). These data feeds will also still be hosted via the [Data Exchange Platform](https://data-exchange.vicroads.vic.gov.au/), so there are no changes to API keys. However, in the next few months, they will be moved to the [Transport Victoria Open Data Portal](https://opendata.transport.vic.gov.au/) and users will need to register for a new API key. We will provide more information closer to the date.\n\n \n\n**Why are these changes being made?**\n\nThese changes are being made to:\n\n* Create consistent and accurate real\\-time transport information for open data users.\n* Improve trip planning and data usability by better aligning static and real\\-time datasets.\n
