How does TfNSW keep up-to-date with changes to GTFS? I see [pathways.txt](https://github.com/google/transit/pull/143) was added a couple of months ago and a few agencies (globally) are already using it. I don’t see it in a [changelog](https://developers.google.com/transit/gtfs/guides/revision-history) or notice, though.

Please consider adding this file.

I’m mainly interested in `traversal_time` for transfers at Central Station (including train, bus, and light rail). I believe this data already exists and is used by transportnsw.info/trip.

Hi @jayen. We’re looking into this, however it needs allot of work before it can be released. We’ll keep you posted!

Hi, did the traversal time ever get released? Thanks!
