Good morning. For a research project I am creating some service delivery performance reporting and would like to know which API feed will give me real time stop timings for bus routes.

We have collected the timetable information and just require the actual arrival or departure timings to complete initial development/research work.

Thanks,  
Kevin

Welcome to the forum.

We only have realtime data for this on the Open Data Hub. So you would need to collect your own against the timetable.  
For your purposes this may be the best dataset to use:

> **[Public Transport - Realtime Trip Update | TfNSW Open Data Hub and Developer...](https://opendata.transport.nsw.gov.au/dataset/public-transport-realtime-trip-update)**
>
> Transport for NSW's Open Data Portal

Note you will want to use the matching GTFS (timetable) data:

> **[Public Transport - Timetables - For Realtime | TfNSW Open Data Hub and...](https://opendata.transport.nsw.gov.au/dataset/public-transport-timetables-realtime)**
>
> Transport for NSW's Open Data Portal
