The values for Light Rail in Jan 2018 are very different from the others.

Is this a transcription error? Was there an environmental issue?

Probably the result of the line closures between 1st and 15th and the partial closures from the 16th to 29th @mat_hounsell_uts

Does the data come out on a particular day/date of the month?

Hi @jeremythorpe. The Opal Trips - All Modes data is aggregated and released monthly, however there is no particular day of the month that it is released. A notification on the Forum is created when the new data is added.

@jeremythorpe just correcting my previous post. A notification is only for new datasets and not updated ones, so keep your eye on Opal Trips - All Modes | TfNSW Open Data Hub and Developer Portal!

Is API availabe for query? I am running , it says API error.

I don’t think so. Looks like downloadable files. Do you have a screenshot of the error?
