Jalisco Transit Routes Published as GTFS
This overview was generated with AI from the public sources listed below and checked against them before publication. It has not had a complete human fact-check — treat it as a starting point and follow the sources.
How this atlas is made · What “last verified” means · What “source-checked” means · The full record behind this page
In July 2026 the Jalisco transport ministry completed the first stage of digitising the state's public transport network, publishing more than 275 routes to the international GTFS standard so that routes, stops and timetables can be read in Google Maps and comparable applications from any phone or computer. The metropolitan area of Guadalajara is the bulk of the network covered, and the systems operated by SITEUR are included alongside the urban bus routes.
what does this mean?
The strongest source is press reporting; no primary evaluation was located. It grades who did the looking — not how well the project went. All four grades →📊 Impact
The ministry describes this as the first stage of the work. Real-time vehicle geolocation is announced for the following months rather than delivered, and at publication was being piloted on a small number of routes.
🎓 Lesson
A route file answers where a line goes; it does not answer where the bus is. Publishing schedules to a standard is the half of open transit data that needs no working telemetry behind it, which is why it usually comes first, and the live feed is the half that does. Here that second half is still an announcement, which makes the distance between the two the thing worth watching rather than the route count.

Forensic record — source dossiers, gaps, hashes and the exact revision this page renders
This layer records what is known about each source, what is still missing, and the exact snapshot this page is rendering. A missing date, archive or hash stays visible as missing.
Awaiting operator and domain-expert review; publication of this revision implies neither.

Also names the routes on which real-time positioning was being piloted.
Known limits of this passport
- Publisher names and source languages have not yet been classified; domains are recorded without guessing.
- Existing source notes are descriptive locators, not page- or paragraph-exact citations.
- A missing archive, publication date or content hash is shown as null rather than inferred.
- The project-level evidence grade ranks the strongest source in the entry; it is not a truth score for every claim.
