Lineflow Transit helps bus operators create, map and publish TransXChange files to the Bus Open Data Service — quickly, accurately, and without specialist data skills.
Tell us about this bus service — you can update these at any time.
What Lineflow does
Purpose-built for UK bus operators. Plain English, no jargon, no training required.
Draw your route directly on a map. Stops snap using NaPTAN data for all UK stops with road-following geometry.
Add journeys, set timing points, handle bank holidays and school term variations — guided step by step.
Mileage worked out from your actual mapped routes, including dead mileage — no more measuring by hand.
Build driver duties from your journeys and export several at once into a single TMF file.
See every departure from a single stop across all your services — ideal for roadside timetables.
Bank holidays and school terms defined once, then reused across every service you run.
Built-in checks against the BODS PTI profile catch errors before you publish — not after.
Export a valid TransXChange 2.4 XML file ready to upload to the Bus Open Data Service.
Already have a TxC file? Import it, tidy up the data, add map geometry and re-export.
How it works
Lineflow walks you through every part of the process in plain English. No TxC knowledge required.
Your NOC, company name and contact. Done once, used everywhere.
Line number, registration, origin, destination and operating dates.
Search stops by name or ATCO and draw the route on the map. Add inbound, outbound and short workings.
Departures, operating days, bank holidays and seasonal changes.
Validate against the BODS PTI profile, then download your TxC 2.4 file ready to upload to BODS.
Pricing
Everything included. No per-route fees, no data limits, no surprises.

Lineflow Transit is currently invite-only. If you already have an account, sign in to get going.
Select the services to include in the ZIP file. Each service will be exported as an individual TxC XML file.
Choose which days and stops to include in the export.
Upload a TxC XML file or a ZIP containing multiple services. All services found will be listed for you to select.
Dates when no services run. For a single day, leave the end date blank.
Define the term and holiday dates for a school, college or other organisation. These dates will be embedded in your TransXChange export and referenced by individual journeys.
Paste a list of stops, one per line. You can include ATCO codes separated by a comma — e.g. Thetford Bus Station, 2900N12345
You can add ATCO codes later if you don't have them to hand.
Add journeys at a regular interval between two times. Times are auto-filled using your run times (set above the timetable), or 3 min per stop if not set.

We do not take card payments; fees are invoiced. We do not use analytics or advertising tools.
Your service data is private to your account and is not shared with other users or operators. We do not sell personal data.
Your account and service data is stored on our servers (our database provider), not on your device, and is synced to your account wherever you log in. Your browser keeps only what it needs to keep you logged in.
We use these providers to run Lineflow Transit. Each only processes data to provide its service to us:
Stop data comes from the DfT’s NaPTAN open data and is served from our own website.
Some of these providers process data outside the UK, including in the United States. Where they do, transfers rely on UK adequacy regulations (including the UK–US data bridge) or the UK’s approved contract clauses.
Lineflow Transit does not use tracking, analytics or advertising cookies. Your browser stores only what is strictly necessary for the service to work, such as your login session.
Data is sent over encrypted connections and stored with our database provider, with each account able to see only its own data. Keep your password safe and log out on shared computers. We recommend regularly exporting your services as TransXChange files as your own backup.
We keep your account and service data while your account is open. When it is closed, we delete it within 90 days, except anything we must keep longer for legal or accounting reasons (such as invoices).
Under UK GDPR you have the right to access, correct, delete or receive a copy of your personal data, and to object to or restrict how we use it. To use these rights, or to delete your account and its data, email hello@lineflowtransit.co.uk. We will respond within one month. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk.
We may update this policy as the service develops. We will tell you about significant changes by email or in the app, and show the date of the latest version at the top of this page.
