Intercity Bus Atlas Stops

The Intercity Bus Atlas - Stops dataset uses source data from April 08, 2025 and was created on April 08, 2025 from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) and is part of the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT)/Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) National Transportation Atlas Database (NTAD). The Intercity Bus Atlas (ICBA) initiative collects, compiles, maps, publishes, and archives scheduled intercity bus service data provided by North American bus service providers. ICBA data--collected as periodic historic snapshots of available intercity bus services--is intended for federal, state, local, and tribal transportation decision makers, metropolitan planning organizations, transportation-related associations, private sector actors (including the freight community), and the public to better understand the density, frequency, accessibility, and reachability provided by the intercity bus industry's services. The stop, route, and schedule data provided by the ICBA reveal the local, interregional, and international connectivity, service densities, frequencies, and travel patterns enabled by the intercity bus component of the United States' myriad transportation facilities and services as well as how these services co-exist with other modes of passenger travel. The underlying source data of the ICBA are supplied by participating North American bus service providers, who publish their schedule information compliant the General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS). This GTFS standard allows intercity bus providers to publish operational information on their stops, routes, trips, schedules, fares, and transfers in a way that is maximally interoperable with applications that consume, process, and visualize the data for riders and others interested in learning more about their services. The ICBA, however, relies only on data provided via GTFS' schedule component; while there is a second GTFS component for real-time bus location data, it is not currently utilized or required for the ICBA. More information on GTFS is available at https://gtfs.org/schedule/. In turn, the Bureau of Transportations Statistics collects GTFS schedule data from provider websites and compiles them into a single geospatially enabled database. As of December 2023, this database contains two feature layers, each representing a different component of providers networks: stops and routes. The ICBA Routes dataset shows the alignment of each intercity bus route (i.e., a group of trips displayed to riders as a single service) along the national road network; it combines information from the GTFS "routes.txt", "trips.txt", and "shapes.txt" files.

National Network

The National Network dataset is as of December 22, 2020 and is from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) along with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), and part of the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT)/Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) National Transportation Atlas Database (NTAD). The National Network was authorized by the Surface Transportation Assistance Act of 1982 (P.L. 97-424) and specified in the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (23 CFR 658) to require states to allow conventional combinations on "the Interstate System and those portions of the Federal-aid Primary System serving to link principal cities and densely developed portions of the states on high volume routes utilized extensively by large vehicles for interstate commerce which do not have any unusual characteristics causing current or anticipated safety problems. âThe National Network (NN) includes almost all of the Interstate Highway System and other, specified non-Interstate highways. On March 31, 2025, four (4) records were updated to correct their "SIGNT1" and "SIGNN1" values. âThe National Network (NN) includes almost all of the Interstate Highway System and other, specified non-Interstate highways. The network comprises more than 200,000 miles of highways. The National Network supports interstate commerce by regulating the size of trucks. This file is a geospatial representation of the National Network as described in 23 CFR 658 Appendix A and should not be interpreted as the official National Network and should not be used for truck size and weight enforcement purposes or for navigation.

Time Zones

The Time Zones dataset was compiled on October 04, 2019 and was updated January 05, 2023 from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) and is part of the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT)/Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) National Transportation Atlas Database (NTAD). This layer is a digital representation of the geographic boundaries of the nine time zones that cover the United States and its territories (the Atlantic, Eastern, Central, Mountain, Pacific, Alaska, HawaiiâAleutian, Samoa, and Chamorro time zones). The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) oversees the Nation's time zones and the uniform observance of Daylight-Saving Time. The oversight of time zones was assigned to DOT due to the importance of time coordination for transportation related activities. The time zones were established by the Standard Time Act of 1918 and amended by the Uniform Time Act of 1966. Time zones in the U.S. are defined in the U.S. Code, Title 15, Chapter 6, Subchapter IX - Standard Time. The time zone boundaries are defined in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Title 49, Subtitle A, Part 71 - Standard Time Zone Boundaries. Segments used to compile the geospatial layer were derived from the CFRâs time zone descriptions (https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-49/subtitle-A/part-71). Descriptions consist of segments referencing administrative boundaries, infrastructure, natural features, and geodesic lines. These segments are contained in various data layers in the National Geospatial Data Asset (NGDA) portfolio, the federal governmentâs authoritative geospatial data repository. Referenced segments were extracted from their NGDA and then merged to form continuous boundaries. In instances where there were multiple scales for a given dataset, the largest scale or most detailed layer was used. The standard time of the Atlantic zone is the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) minus 4 hours; Eastern zone is UTC minus 5 hours; Central zone is UTC minus 6 hours; Mountain zone is UTC minus 7 hours; Pacific zone is UTC minus 8 hours; Alaska zone is UTC minus 9 hours; HawaiiâAleutian zone is UTC minus 10 hours; Samoa zone is UTC minus 11 hours; and Chamorro zone is UTC plus 10 hours.

National Highway Freight Network (NHFN)

The National Highway Freight Network (NHFN) dataset was compiled on January 27, 2023 from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and is part of the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT)/Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) National Transportation Atlas Database (NTAD). Congress established a new National Highway Freight Program (NHFP) in 23 U.S.C. 167 to improve the efficient movement of freight on the National Highway Freight Network (NHFN) and support several goals.  The law required the FHWA Administrator to strategically direct Federal resources and policies toward improved performance of the network. The NHFP provides formula funding apportioned annually to States, for use on the NHFN.  The definition of the NHFN is established under 23 U.S.C. 167(c) and consists of four separate highway network components:  the PHFS; Critical Rural Freight Corridors (CRFCs); Critical Urban Freight Corridors (CUFCs); and those portions of the Interstate System that are not part of the PHFS.  

Primary Highway Freight System (PHFS): This is a network of highways identified as the most critical highway portions of the U.S. freight transportation system determined by measurable and objective national data. The network consists of 41,800 centerlines miles, including 38,014 centerline miles of Interstate and 3,785 centerline miles of non-Interstate roads.
Other Interstate portions not on the PHFS: These highways consist of the remaining portion of Interstate roads not included in the PHFS. These routes provide important continuity and access to freight transportation facilities. These portions amount to an estimated 10,265 centerline miles of Interstate, nationwide, and will fluctuate with additions and deletions to the Interstate Highway System.
Critical Rural Freight Corridors (CRFCs): These are public roads not in an urbanized area which provide access and connection to the PHFS and the Interstate with other important ports, public transportation facilities, or other intermodal freight facilities. Nationwide, there are 5,389 centerline miles designated as CRFCs as of January 27, 2023. CRFCs are not included in GIS data base. 
Critical Urban Freight Corridors (CUFCs): These are public roads in urbanized areas which provide access and connection to the PHFS and the Interstate with other ports, public transportation facilities, or other intermodal transportation facilities. Nationwide, there are 2,656 centerline miles designated as CUFC as of January 27, 2023. CUFCs are not included in GIS data base.
