GTFS-flex
A proposed extension to GTFS for modeling demand-responsive transportation services like on-demand and same-day transit.
What is GTFS-flex?
GTFS-Flex is a proposed extension to the General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS) that adds support for modeling demand-responsive transportation (DRT) services, such as on-demand and same-day transit. It solves the limitation of standard GTFS, which only covers fixed-route public transportation, by enabling trip planners to incorporate flexible transit options.
Transit agencies, mobility data providers, and developers working on trip planning applications who need to integrate flexible transit services into their systems.
It provides a standardized way to represent flexible transit services, ensuring compatibility with existing GTFS tools and enabling broader adoption of demand-responsive transit in trip planning software.
