About Open Data

Open Data Hub

The Open Data Hub is the central location for all Transport for NSW open data. The Open Data Hub was established in April 2016 at the Future Transport summit and replaced the Transport Data Exchange (TDX) Program. Since the launch of the Hub we have welcomed more than 35,700+ registered users who have created 9000+ applications via the Open Data Hub.

Developers

Transport Open Data is sourced by many developers to feed reference or real time data into their apps which service millions of NSW citizens.

To support developers getting started on using Transport Open Data, we have  compiled under Developers section a collection of useful resources including step-by-step user guide, documentation, and developer information.
