p “pick up only” – the bus will only stop to pick up passengers

s “set down only” – the bus will only stop to drop passengers off

Seen at stop is when the operator reported the bus at or near that stop, not its exact arrival time. Expected times are estimates. A dash means no time has been reported. Est. passed (≈) is our estimate of when the bus passed this stop, using positions recorded before and after it along the route. It does not confirm that the bus stopped. Open the time to see the recording window. We leave a dash where there is not enough reliable information.

Planned, expected and observed values remain separate. Blank observations are never presented as on-time.
