YUCTS Transit website guide
YUCTS Transit is a website for public transport transfer search and service status. Look up transfers by train, metro, bus, ferry and plane, and check the status of each system, all in one place — no sign-in needed.
Regions
| Region | Status | Coverage |
|---|---|---|
| Taiwan | Available | Taiwan Railway, High Speed Rail, metros and light rail, buses, public bikes such as YouBike, flights and ferries to the outlying islands, and the Alishan Forest Railway — added as official data is imported |
| Japan | In preparation | Operators will be added one by one as permitted under the Open Data for Public Transportation (ODPT) license; not every railway in Japan will be covered |
Language and time
- The site is available in 日本語, English, 繁體中文, 简体中文, Tiếng Việt and 한국어 — switch with "Language" at the top of the page.
- Times are always shown in local time with the time zone (UTC+8 for Taiwan). If your device is set to another time zone, the page tells you.
How the site works
- Official data is never altered, and no times or fares are made up.
- Estimated values are always labelled "estimated".
- When data hasn't arrived, the site says "no data" / "no official data" instead of treating it as normal service.
