Land Transport Authority DataMall, Singapore API
Overview
The Land Transport Authority (LTA) DataMall API provides comprehensive Singapore transport data including bus arrivals, taxi availability, train service alerts, and carpark information. An API key is required and can be requested for free from the LTA DataMall portal. This is an essential API for developers building Singapore-focused transport and mobility applications.
Beginner Tip
Request your free API key at https://datamall.lta.gov.sg/ and use it in the AccountKey header. Start with the /BusArrivalv2 endpoint using a bus stop code (5-digit number) to get real-time arrival predictions.
