bus_incidents(Route = NULL, api_key = wmata_key())
A data frame with 1 row per incident and 5 variables:
Unique identifier for an incident.
Free-text description of the incident type. Usually
Delay
or Alert
but is subject to change at any time.
Character string of routes affected. Routes listed are usually identical to base route names (i.e.: not 10Av1 or 10Av2, but 10A), but may differ from what our bus methods return.
Free-text description of the delay or incident.
Date and time (UTC) of last update.
Base bus route; variations are not recognized (i.e.: C2 instead of C2v1, C2v2, etc.).
Subscription key which provides access to this API. Defaults
Sys.getenv("WMATA_KEY")
via wmata_key()
.
Data frame of bus incidents and delays.
Note that the Route parameter accepts only base route names and no variations, i.e.: use 10A instead of 10Av1 and 10Av2.
