Hi,
Sorry for taking so long to respond here… I’ve been away for a bit.
Regarding the ferry on the road situation, can you please confirm that the coordinates you are using are related to a ferry leg, and not to a bus leg. It looks to me that you are actually getting a bus leg and interpreting the mode of transport incorrectly.
Regarding the fares for private operators (which is a completely separate thing…), TfNSW does not have fare data for private operators, who can set and change their fares without notice to us. Therefore, the trip planner APIs do not have data related to fares for private operators at this time.
Cheers
Vic
