Follow the steps to publish data on your website and let us know where we can collect it.
To help you prepare your data, you can download CSV files for local plans and plan timetables. Each file contains pre-populated rows for local plans using the new system that you can complete.
Open the file in a spreadsheet editor and:
- review the data
- correct any errors
- add missing information before publishing it on your website
The CSV may include data for the legacy local plans system from:
- data you provided in the past
- information on your website from plans under the legacy system
- open data from public sources
