Municipal transit and waterway records for New York City, keyless.

What you can do

  • NYC Ferry ridership — daily boardings by route (AS, ER, GI, LE, RR, RS, RW, SB, SG, SV), stop and hour
  • Busiest ferry stops — boardings ranked by stop over a bounded look-back window (90 days by default, up to 730)
  • Staten Island Ferry — daily ridership between the Port Authority Bus Terminal and St. George
  • School-year bus breakdowns — OPT bus breakdowns by school year ("2024-25"), borough, company and route
  • Bus stop shelters — public shelter locations by borough or street
  • Real-time signs — real-time passenger information (RTPi) sign locations by stop or corner
  • School bus routes — DOE school bus routes by year, route number or vendor

Who is this for

Transport planning, multimodal research, transit-oriented analysis and city operations. Ferry daily data runs from 2017; bus breakdowns and school bus routes are organized by school year, not calendar dates.

Which NYC Ferry stop had the most boardings in the last 30 days?

top_ferry_stop_boardings with days: '30' returns stops ranked by total boardings over the window; search_ferry_ridership shows the underlying daily rows for a specific route or stop.

How many riders used the Staten Island Ferry in January 2026?

list_si_ferry_ridership with a date window around January 2026 returns the daily ridership rows between the Port Authority Bus Terminal and St. George; sum the rows for a total.

Show me the school bus routes run by a specific vendor in 2024-25.

search_school_bus_routes takes the vendor name and school_year '2024-25' and returns the routes that vendor operated; search_bus_breakdowns can show which of those routes had the most breakdowns.

No. NYC Open Data serves all public datasets anonymously over its SODA API (data.cityofnewyork.us). This MCP defines no credentials and needs nothing configured.
