Swiss Public Transport Departure Chrome Extension

This extension for Google Chrome Browser alerts the user when a train, tram or bus departs from a station.

The user pre-selects the departure station, the time range in which the notification should be displayed and the number of minutes prior to the departure when the alert should be displayed.

Transport data is retrieved and processed every minute from https://transport.opendata.ch. Please note that the author of this extension is not responsible if you miss your public transportation.

The extension is also available in the Google Chrome Webstore: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/swiss-public-transport-de/himldllpdlkcdemakpcogfkoighmfpgi

Localization

The user may select the location of the station to get localized notifications such as displaying the line number instead of the generic icon.

Filter destinations

In order to limit the number of departure notifications the user may select the preferred destination. The list after the installation and after selecting a new departure station is empty. New destinations are added to the list whenever the extension retrieves the transport data.

Limitations - things to do

  • if location is selected not every transport has it's own label
