Port Authority Bus Stop Usage [supporting dataset]

This dataset shows stop-level boardings and alightings for selected months from 2019 onwards. Typically ridership is highest in September. This dataset will update each month with the latest data. There is also a deprecated dataset showing all bus stops active in Port Authority's fiscal year 2019 (7/1/2018 to 6/30/2019) along with latitude/longitude, stop type and amenities, and average boardings and alightings. The boardings and alightings are available as an average for the schedule pick and the fiscal year average. A schedule "pick" is a four digit year-month ID for the quarterly schedule period, e.g. 1809 is the schedule period starting September 2018. Rail stops/stations are not included as riders either pay at the platform (unable to join to specific route) or on the railcar (unable to join to specific platform).
