Leg Data Type

One leg of a trip -- that is, a temporally continuous piece of the journey that takes place on a particular vehicle (or on foot).

Properties
name data type description
startTime number The date and time this leg begins.
endTime number The date and time this leg ends.
departureDelay number For transit leg, the offset from the scheduled departure-time of the boarding stop in this leg. "scheduled time of departure at boarding stop" = startTime - departureDelay
arrivalDelay number For transit leg, the offset from the scheduled arrival-time of the alighting stop in this leg. "scheduled time of arrival at alighting stop" = endTime - arrivalDelay
realTime boolean Whether there is real-time data about this Leg
isNonExactFrequency boolean Is this a frequency-based trip with non-strict departure times?
headway number The best estimate of the time between two arriving vehicles. This is particularly important for non-strict frequency trips, but could become important for real-time trips, strict frequency trips, and scheduled trips with empirical headways.
distance number The distance traveled while traversing the leg in meters.
pathway boolean Is this leg a traversing pathways?
mode string The mode (e.g., Walk) used when traversing this leg.
route string For transit legs, the route of the bus or train being used. For non-transit legs, the name of the street being traversed.
agencyName string
agencyUrl string
agencyBrandingUrl string
agencyTimeZoneOffset number
routeColor string For transit leg, the route's (background) color (if one exists). For non-transit legs, null.
routeType number For transit legs, the type of the route. Non transit -1 When 0-7: 0 Tram, 1 Subway, 2 Train, 3 Bus, 4 Ferry, 5 Cable Car, 6 Gondola, 7 Funicular When equal or highter than 100, it is coded using the Hierarchical Vehicle Type (HVT) codes from the European TPEG standard Also see http://groups.google.com/group/gtfs-changes/msg/ed917a69cf8c5bef
routeId FeedScopedId For transit legs, the ID of the route. For non-transit legs, null.
routeTextColor string For transit leg, the route's text color (if one exists). For non-transit legs, null.
interlineWithPreviousLeg boolean For transit legs, if the rider should stay on the vehicle as it changes route names.
tripShortName string For transit leg, the trip's short name (if one exists). For non-transit legs, null.
tripBlockId string For transit leg, the trip's block ID (if one exists). For non-transit legs, null.
headsign string For transit legs, the headsign of the bus or train being used. For non-transit legs, null.
agencyId string For transit legs, the ID of the transit agency that operates the service used for this leg. For non-transit legs, null.
tripId FeedScopedId For transit legs, the ID of the trip. For non-transit legs, null.
serviceDate string For transit legs, the service date of the trip. For non-transit legs, null.
routeBrandingUrl string For transit leg, the route's branding URL (if one exists). For non-transit legs, null.
from Place The Place where the leg originates.
to Place The Place where the leg begins.
intermediateStops array of Place For transit legs, intermediate stops between the Place where the leg originates and the Place where the leg ends. For non-transit legs, null. This field is optional i.e. it is always null unless "showIntermediateStops" parameter is set to "true" in the planner request.
legGeometry EncodedPolylineBean The leg's geometry.
steps array of WalkStep A series of turn by turn instructions used for walking, biking and driving.
alerts array of LocalizedAlert
routeShortName string
routeLongName string
boardRule string
alightRule string
rentedBike boolean
callAndRide boolean True if this is a call-and-ride leg.
flexCallAndRideMaxStartTime number
flexCallAndRideMinEndTime number
flexDrtAdvanceBookMin number trip.drt_advance_book_min if this is a demand-response leg
flexDrtPickupMessage string Agency message if this is leg has a demand-response pickup and the Trip has `drt_pickup_message` defined.
flexDrtDropOffMessage string Agency message if this is leg has a demand-response dropoff and the Trip has `drt_drop_off_message` defined.
flexFlagStopPickupMessage string Agency message if this is leg has a flag stop pickup and the Trip has `continuous_pickup_message` defined.
flexFlagStopDropOffMessage string Agency message if this is leg has a flag stop dropoff and the Trip has `continuous_drop_off_message` defined.
transitLeg boolean Whether this leg is a transit leg or not.
duration number The leg's duration in seconds
