NFTA Bus Schedules Made Easy - Buffalo
Category: buffalo
NFTA - Metro: Routes & Fares - buffalo bus schedule - schedules for the bus in Buffalo, NY

I decided to make a much simpler list for downloading the NFTA metro Bus and Rail schedules as I was so sick of navigating the stupid NFTA site to get the Bus schedule PDFs on my mobile. Its also at a simpler URL, estrip.org/nfta If you mobile doesn't do PDFS then this isn't so great but its still an easier way to load the PDFs on your computer for printing. Because of this I added a jpeg version as well. If you click the jpeg link next to a route, it converts the pdf to jpeg on the file for you so that you can view it with any image viewer. Maybe I will do a plain text version soon, if I have some time.

It sucks that the schedules are in PDF format for most people but hopefully this at least makes them easier to get to. If I have time I might convert the data as well.

The NFTA Site does indeed suck. Their trip planner is a bit of a joke, even though i do end up using it. Having to open a million screens to find out how to get somewhere with a connection is a pain, so i manipulate times so i can get something decent from the trip planner.

Not that you will want to find it now that Paul has given us this, but the schedules can be found if you click on "Schedules & Fares" in a blue section along the left hand side. That's only after you have gone to the main NFTA section and clicked on "MEtro Bus and Rail"

I've tried to email them to tell them that their site is akward and difficult to get information from, but i got nowhere. I even tried to call, but i got yelled at by the person who answered the phone in that department after being transfered by someone else. I don't think they care if the NFTA is easy to use -- botht he site and the service.

This is pretty badass, actually. I had the Colvin bus schedule bookmarked on my iPhone but I guess there's something wrong with Miniquartz - everything shows up but the times.

leetee - 01/28/08 09:51
